These toys are perfect for the teething babies who have a tendency of putting whatever they can in their mouths. Another benefit of plastic bath toys is that they are not dependant on batteries. Furthermore, plastic toys are more durable. Children’s plastic bath toys make use of non-toxic materials like natural colors and  dyes.

I have been on the lookout for a while as you always see "better" toys for ever occasion but the bath tub! Apparently, I was looking in all the wrong places. I am going to replace my daughter's toys with these and I hope they continue their good work--thanks for the information! Finally, bath toys!

My husband and I have been trying for years but every time we buy a loaf of bread or box of cereal or a toothbrush, there's another bit of plastic packaging going into the landfill.

If I buy new plastic, I prefer that it be recycled plastic, not new because it adds more waste to our landfills.

I just bought that Boon potty bench! I didn't even know what I was doing... just saw that it was 50% off at Target! And Keri, you can "recycle" any used toys or plastic ware by donating them, selling them, handing them down, etc. It's actually less impact than what melting them down to create new toys would be.

I would rather have verified safe plastic toys than recycled ones that could contain a mish mash of plastics that could be potentially toxic.
