ABC Kids Expo 2008: New Bath Toys From Boon

Chris Ford — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 19:30:00 GMT

There were a lot of fun things at the Boon booth at ABC this year, like these new bath toys - Odd Ducks, Water Bugs, Splat and Scrubble. All are BpA, Phthalate and PVC free and under $9.99.

Odd Ducks are rubber ducks with modern graphics, and my favorite part is they don't have any holes where water can get in and get moldy (bottom left in picture). Water Bugs (bottom right) is a game of sorts where kids can scoop up floating bugs (that kind of look like jacks) with a net. Splat (top left) is a floating ring toss game and Scrubble (center) is an "interchangeable scrub set" where kids can practice scrubbing themselves in the tub.

All should be available in six weeks. Check out all the bath toys at Boon.com.

Sassafras Duck Croquet Set Quacks Us Up

Heather Kuldell — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 17:03:00 GMT

If you’re looking for a relatively calm outdoor activity, croquet may be just the game. There’s no running, no catching, and no flying objects to keep an eye on. The Sassafras Duck Croquet Set is an adorable, painted wood mini-set that includes two mallets, four balls and four duck-and-rope wickets. Assuming the play is less competitive than Heathers, you can adjust the wickets to offer wider targets for little players. A net carrying bag is also included; tea and pâté are not.

Available on Amazon, $16.95.

Plant a Memory, Plant Your Shower Favors

Mir — Sun, 16 Sep 2007 22:03:00 GMT

I am rarely a fan of favors of any kind, because who needs more little useless pieces of crap cluttering up the house? Not me. But I do like the idea of favors ("we like you and we're glad you came; have a little present!"), and now I've found an actual favor I think is awesome. These little plantable duckies are my favorite of the offerings at Plant a Memory, but they have plenty of styles from which to choose; each comes with your customizable message, a "Love is Blooming" or "Baby is Blooming" sticker, and instructions on how to take it home and plant it. They're about $2 each (less if you buy larger quantities), and who doesn't like flowers?
