Glo Pals x Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood Water-Activated Bath Toy with 6 Reusable Light-Up Cubes for Sensory Play (Cubes with Character)

My 5 year old son absolutely loves GloPals, he calls them magic blocks. We just got the new Daniel Tiger set and he’s ready to jump in the bath and play. They are so simple to use- just put in water and the lights turn on. There are no on/off switches and they are sealed so you don’t have to worry about batteries being accidentally ingested. We use ours in the bath tub but they can go in any water. Keep the GloPals dry when not using them to prolong the battery life. Highly recommend!!!!

What a fun way to add imaginative play to bath time! My 3 year old loves it! The cube easily slides in and out of Daniel, so he passes my mold test! I hope they make more characters!

We have a few sets of Glo Pals and love them all. They make convincing our son to take a bath so much easier and make bath time much more fun. They are one of my go to gifts for toddler friends as well! This Daniel Tiger glo pal set is no different, and perfect for any Daniel Tiger fan!Pros:-neat design, they light up as soon as they hit the water, then turn off as soon as you remove them. Makes for the perfect novelty bath toy! They colors (this set is yellow) show up so well in the water...and are even more impressive if you turn off the lights in the bathroom! They are perfect for scooping up and exploring how they glow in your hands vs different containers. The movable Daniel tiger figure adds another element of fun and allows for some pretend play as well.-great for convincing a reluctant bather to get in the water. When our son was little he only wanted to stand up in the bath. We had a lot of trouble convincing him to sit down to play in the water, let alone lay down to fully submerge himself or wash the soap off his hair and body. We used glo pal cubes to convince him to get down deeper in the water. The cubes sink to the bottom, so he had to get in to be able to scoop them up!-great for a water sensory bin, but make sure you try them in a fairly dark room...we tried them in our water table outside, but the light didn't show up well in the full sunshine.Cons:- I hate that these have a limited lifespan, as the batteries cannot be changed. Once they die, that is it, the cubes will need to be replaced. Supposedly they can be recycled, but still not the most sustainable of toys. That said, they do last a while. We got a set last november and although we don't use them every bath time, only two have died, which isn't too bad.-The price is pretty high, especially for a toy that doesn't last to be passed down to other siblings or friends.

I got these for my 2 year old who loves playing in the bath and they are a hit. He loves to turn the lights low and splash around with these. They are super cute and perfect for Daniel Tiger fans. He loves that they turn on like magic. I just have 2 critiques. I wish the hands/arms weren't so long and creepy. I think they are just using the same kind of mold as their other products but they should probably do something a little different for Daniel. As for the light cubes themselves, I wish you could replace the batteries. I think the design is meant to be a safety feature but I hate the idea that we're going to use these up and then have to throw them away. I know it says to recycle, but our recycling company here will not take these which means more plastic waste.
