A word about Boon’s new bath line

A word about Boon’s new bath line
We were excited to see a new line of bath toys from Boon, and were happy to hear from them yesterday that they'd set up a Facebook image gallery to do some advanced promotion. We're still waiting for the release of their Bug Pod (a sister ladybug to their bestselling Frog Pod, a bath toy holder and scoop that hangs on your shower or bathtub wall, so we're assuming it will be a few months before these are ready for purchase. But one of the items in the line is pretty unusual, as well as very well made, so we thought it was worth a mention now.


Boon's Scrubbles are a lot like the little scrub brushes you might use to wash your dishes. In this case, they're just as useful but a lot more fun. The TPE/polypropylene surfaces of the brushes are soft, textured, and intriguing. They're great for sucking in and squirting out water, like many other water toys, but also putting a bit of water with baby soap in, so you can scrub your kid with them. They have that blend of the fun and functional that Boon's best products share. They're also - as are all the products in this new line, which you can check out on Facebook if you have an account - BPA-free, phthalate-free, and even PVC-free. (Considering that the line includes four bath duckies, that's saying something.)



Recognize the two-part design here?


That's right! Hey, I wonder if they components are interchangeable...

These look AWESOME!  I’m a big fan of things that can be unscrewed to fully dry out.  Nice :)

Oh my! I want them. NOW!!! I just threw out ALL of my son’s gifts (OK, sent them to goodwill) from folks that had a place for water to get stuck in. ew ew ew!

Oh, and the pics on the Facebook page say they ARE interchangable

Maria - Yes, the Scrubbles components are interchangeable - I was curious about whether you could swap parts between Scrubbles and the Squirt. Not necessarily fantastically useful, but if you wanted a very small portion of yogurt, a small Scrubbles “back” with the Squirt tip might be useful. That might be the least odd permutation…

Oooohhh… I misunderstood. Sorry.
