and do you use products?
just noticed DD's toys seem a bit slimey and some a bit mouldy

Also, if they poo in bath, do you wash the toys or throw out?

Thanks!!

Haven't had a DD poo in the bath (yet!) so I can't comment on that, but I use Milton to get rid of the slimey mouldy stuff. The inside of the squirty toys needs to be rinsed out too, it's shocking what comes out.

Put in pillowcase, tie up and wash in washing machine. Dishwash too - without pillowcase obv! Never experienced poo in bath

DS#2's got so bad recently - in a string toy bag hanging up over the bath - that I had to scrub them in dilute bleach They were black and slimy. . Had to chuck some away. Then they all had a hot bath to rinse the bleach away.

I like the idea of the pillow case marma. For future ref.

Yes, pillow case in washing machine very good thought. Do you put on a 30 degrees wash and short spin?
