My kids use to love the frizz tablet that changes the color of water.
Our son loves to play Bathketball! Plus play with his boats just splashing away!
My kids always liked using bath crayons.
They used to take their small plastic toys into the tub with them and 'fly their planes around the tub'. I found a great trick was to let them take a small plastic bucket or cup with them and they played the game of dumping water over their heads and laughing. This proved much better than battling with them to let me rinse shampoo off their heads! Never the wiser!
My son is 8 and still likes to take helicopter Hot Wheels in the shower. When he was little I used bubbles, and sometimes Tupperware for him to scoop water.
I give them 2 minutes to splash around in the tub.
Fun bath
I love the idea of using household items to play in the tub instead of buying lots of crazy items that simply clutter the house
My son is too young for toys yet but loves his ducky washcloth and towel for bath time.
Having toys, bubbles, and singing. We love to sing. These are priceless times that I will treasure because they grow up so fast.
My niece always loved playing with the bubbles so bubble soap is always a fun time. Kids can build soap mountains and splash the bubbles to break them up. Bubbles almost always guarantee a fun time in the tub. I love the colored shaving cream idea because its a easy and fun way for kids to play with color.
Plastic tupperware containers!
Fun bath sponges
My neices and nephew like playing with bath toys - duckies, submarines, cups to help themselves wash and splash each other, etc.
Using plastic kitchen utensils, bowls, etc
