Boon Frog Pod
This popular bath toy storage unit is a hit for many reasons. It's super cute (frog in water — perfect!) and is also a removable scoop that can easily pick up bath toys in the water. The holes drain water, and the feet have suction cups to grip the bathtub wall. It's also PVC and phthalate-free and does not contain BPA.

I love that this seat serves several purposes. It saves parents' knees and doubles as a step stool and storage bin.

I have this bath storage organizer, and I love that it rests at the end of the tub and is out of the way. My daughter can easily reach her toys and put them back. It's adjustable and vented at the bottom to promote quick drying.
Pelican Bath Toy Storage Pouch
Gulp! This pelican stores bath toys by "swallowing" them. The mesh storage pouch allows air to circulate and dry toys.
