“Caterpillar Spillers” are a great little tub toy that consists of seven kid-sized “strainers” with handy holding tabs. 

You can play with them in a lot of different ways. You can use them independently, you can link them together by pressing the tab on one strainer cup into the hole of another. You can stack them upside down to build a tower that has a cool paddle wheel at the top, or you can nest them together. 

Each strainer cup has a different color, a different cutout design at the bottom, and a number that goes from 1-7 and that corresponds with the size and stacking order of the cups. These things are GREAT! You can use them to discuss numbers, sizes and colors. 

They float a bit, but do sink as the water seeps into them. This makes it great fun for your little one who can pick the caterpillar up, sink it, pick it up, sink it, and repeat half a billion mind-numbing times all while squealing in glee. 

It makes bathtime cleanup more fun for mom and dad, too. These little spillers stack into a tiny space for ease of storage, and they don’t hold water. “Ease of storage” and “Don’t hold water” are two phrases that will make any parent light up with happiness. 

BOTTOM LINE 

Fun for kids, convenient for parents, small, affordable. This toy is a great staple for your kid’s bathtime fun. Children as young as 9 months will love the bright colors and the fun of scooping water. Kids as old as three or even four will like the numbers and the fun caterpillar faces. And the best thing is: Unlike other bath toys, these spillers are easy to clean and won’t become moldy after a few weeks worth of fun.
