Is the Rubber Duck with Sealed Bottom (No Hole) worth buying?
The rubber duck isn’t dead, it just needed a redesign — make sure you’re actually buying the sealed version. If there’s one thing this whole mold-toy saga taught me, it’s that the best kids bath toys that don’t mold are almost always the ones with nowhere for water to hide. Solid, sealed, or purely surface-based — that’s the framework now. We did a full basket audit, said goodbye to about eight squirty animals with suspicious histories, and bath time has been genuinely better since. Less clutter, less anxiety, more actual fun. My practical dad advice: after every bath, take thirty seconds to shake off the toys and set them somewhere they can actually air dry instead of sitting in a soggy pile at the bottom of the tub. It sounds obvious but it made a real difference for us. If you’ve found a mold-free bath toy that your kid absolutely loves and I missed it here, drop it in the comments — Rosie is always open to new candidates, especially if they’re pink.
