My lovely friend has asked for bath fun stuff for her daughter who is 4. I struck gold with the funny faces bath stickers- foam pieces which make faces and a little fishing game the year before but what can I get?? About £25 spend

Bath crayons?

NOT anything squeezy which fills with water which you can't quite get all out again. It's soooooo minging with mould inside things like this after a few weeks! And then you squeeze it all into the bath next time! Ugh. I've only just learned this.

If she doesn’t have any skin issues what about bath fizzers or foams that sort of thing.

Buckets of foam letters, bath crayons. Those sand toys with all the funnels and cogs and things work well in the bath too. We also have this which looks babyish but my 4 and 6yo still play with it - www.amazon.co.uk/Mumustar-Animals-Squirt-Swimming-Bathtub/dp/B079N6R9CM?tag=mumsnet&ascsubtag=mnforum-21

Bath whistles are fun. Themed (or personalised) flannels and/or bath towels?

These are fantastic. My kids love them. Just seen they're reduced, so will be buying another pot for my oldest for her birthday! The colours mix really nicely to make new colours.

Goggles. Currently de rigueur bath wear for the 4 year old in our house. A snorkel?

My DDs who are 4 and 6 share a bath and love their mermaid Barbies (one has a light up tail, one has a dolphin).

They enjoy the Peppa Pig boat, fishing frogs, The Little Mermaid flower shower bathtub, foam Lego and the tea party set.

My kids love these. It’s like a box of hundreds of tiny bath bombs.

You can get magic bath bombs that are shell shaped and dissolve into small plastic mermaids. My daughter had one and loved watching it dissolve to find out which mermaid she would get.

What about one of the fun kids poncho towels for after too, so a toy, some bath goop and a towel?

Lush have some rainbow bath dough. Like soft soap that they can mould in the bath.

Lush have some fizzy bath bombs suitable for kids 6 month+. My 4 year old loves them (and it stops him using mine!)
