As a mom, I'm always looking for ways to make the everyday must-dos a little easier and more fun. So I was so excited when Nûby offered to let us try out some of their bath time staples - and give away a set to a lucky follower too! | This post contains affiliate links as well as an honest review of Nûby products |
With both a toddler and a baby, I feel like we're constantly doing baths or trimming nails and any way we can make these chores easier is a huge help. Our toddler really loves Nûby's Foam Bath Letters and Numbers set - she's really into spelling and loves putting random letters together and asking "what does that spell?", even when it doesn't make a real word. She's really starting to get the hang of it though, and can spell several short words all on her own!
The Tear-Free Rinse Pail has also been a huge help at bath time, for both our toddler and our baby. No one likes getting soap or water in their eyes - especially little ones. So it's great that we can easily rinse the shampoo away without any tears. The rinse pail is BPA-free and features a soft rubber edge so you can comfortably fit it against your little one's forehead. It also holds a generous amount of water for quick rinsing!
Finally nail cutting... ugh. Probably one of the most nerve wracking tasks a parent has to do for their baby! Thankfully Nûby's 6-Piece Nail Care Set has everything you need including scissors, nail clippers, and four emery boards sized for taking care of baby and toddler nails. Their perfect size helps make taking care of your wiggly baby's nails a little less intimidating.

Nûby recently asked us if we wanted to review some items from their new bath line, and what else to say but "YES!!" So Nûby sent us a set of their Stacking Bath Boats and a set of Bath Crayons to try out and let you know what we honestly thought. | This post contains affiliate links |
What first struck us about these two products was how colorful they were. The bright primary colors are a nice feature, and very helpful because our little one is still learning her colors and they are great to practice with.
The Stacking Bath Boats come as a set of five and are BPA-free. They nestle inside each other, but only in a certain order, kind of like a puzzle. This puzzle aspect is a great problem-solving feature for older kids but our almost two-year old can get frustrated with it because she can't easily stack them any way she wants to.
Each smokestack on the boats have different shapes cut into them, so your child can see how the water runs through them when tipped upside down. Our daughter particularly loves doing this and watching the water cascade out.
As fun as the boats are, our daughter REALLY loved the Bath Crayons - I mean when else do you get the go-ahead to color all you want on the walls and floor? These bath crayons are non-toxic and come in a BPA-free sleeve so they don't get squished once they get wet and soft. The colors weren't super-vibrant but it did color easily and smoothly on the surface of the tub.
At first I was admittedly a little nervous that the crayon wouldn't come off our tub or that it would leave faint marks behind, but it wiped off super-easy! It really wasn't any extra work to take a wet washcloth and wipe the surfaces after, it only took about 30 seconds (whew!).
My one complaint about the bath crayons is that they didn't come with a holder for them to sit in after the bath to dry. I suggest having a small disposable plastic plate handy to set them on afterwards.
Overall we really enjoyed these new bath toys from Nûby and I hope you do too!

Today I'm reviewing Nûby's Splash n' Catch Bathtime Fishing Set. I was so excited to receive this as our little one loves "catching" everything in a net lately. In fact, one of her favorite things to do is throw the mesh bag for her blocks (which is pretty small) on top of our black lab's back and shriek with delight that she captured her, it's pretty adorable. | This post contains affiliate links and an honest review of products provided to us by Nûby |
The Splash n' Catch is recommended for ages 18+ months and comes with a fishing net and four colorful sea animals that can be linked together. It's BPA-free and, according to Nûby also PVC-free, which is very important to us. Miss M loves catching the animals and taking them in and out of the net. She's also been playing with this toy out of the tub and has been enjoying putting all kinds of things into the net - small blocks, her snacks, a shoe, etc.
This toy is great for developing hand-eye coordination and teaching your little one some colors. The one small flaw of this toy that we found is our little one can't link and unlink the animals together on her own, but maybe with time she will be able to.
The Splash n' Catch Fishing Set would also be a great toy to bring outside and use in the kiddie pool or water table and I know we'll definitely be bringing it outside this summer.
Miss M loved putting her other bath toys in the net too (pictured are Nûby's Bath Letters and Numbers).

Today I'm reviewing Nûby's Bath Letters and Numbers - and to top it off we're giving away a set of these over on Instagram (details below)! | This post contains affiliate links and an honest review of products provided to us by Nuby |
I was so excited when we received these Bath Letters and Number to review from Nûby. I was looking for something a little different than the boats and rubber animals Miss M has now and I thought these foam letters would be a nice change of pace.
These bath letters are phthalate and BPA free which is very important to us, and are recommended for ages 18+ months. Right now Maddie just loves the colors and shapes of them but as she gets older these will be a great tool to teach numbers and letters. They stick remarkably well to the wall of the tub when wet, and our little one had a lot of fun moving them around and taking them on and off.
I initially had some reservations that these would stay wet for a long time and get yucky in storage but that wasn't the case at all - the foam dries remarkably fast and holding moisture isn't an issue. Overall these are a simple, fun toy for in and out of the tub.

This is my first Nûby review and I am so excited to be a part of their Parent Blogger Network! Maddie has been a huge fan of their sippy cups from the beginning, and for the longest time their Flip 'N Sip Straw Cup was the only kind she'd use. They've sent me a few products to try and share with you, the first of which is their Octopus Floating Bath Toy.
This little floating octopus comes with 3 fun-shaped rings to "toss" on his arms in the bath, and while the rings are too small to actually toss them on successfully it is a great toy to work on hand-eye coordination with. Our little one loved taking the rings on and off repeatedly.
The bright, fun colors and shapes of the octopus were also a big hit; Maddie was particularly drawn to his big googly-looking eyes. In fact, when she was playing with it she pointed to his eye, looked at me, and said "eyeee" - the first time she's ever done that!
One thing I loved about the design of this toy was that it didn't have a hole in the bottom, as most bath toys do. Bath toys with a hole tend to hold moisture inside and grow mold so it's great that this one was fully enclosed.
The one thing that really disappointed me about this toy though was that it's made out of PVC, a material that we consciously try to limit in our house - in fact we go as far as to only buy PVC-free shower curtains. I didn't realize that it was made out of PVC until after her bath. It's really unfortunate because Maddie loved the Octopus but the material is something we choose not to use.
