My daughter recieved this for her second birthday. She was so excited to get the Barney play figures! She kept trying to climb in the tub to play! Now all of a sudden her older brother wants to play in the tub with her : )

My 20-month old son loves this bath toy, it is hands down his favorite! As a confirmed "Barney"-holic, he was very excited when we set it up in the tub. After two months, it's still the only bath toy he plays with any more. He has lots of fun playing with the characters when he's not in the tub, too ... so, overall I'd say it's a great toy. My only complaints are: the faoming button doesn't really make bubbles; the boat accessory doesn't float well or hold the characters well (we just don't use that part); and the doors on on of the compartments snap off very easily (and snap back on, too). Nonetheless, it offers a lot of play value for the price and good bath toys seem to be few and far between. I plan to get one for my 20-month old neice for Christmas.

Of all the tub toys my daughter has owned, this one is by far the best. She is 4 years old and she loves it. Best yet, it is well made and drains itself (dry) well. It is the only tub toy we have ever had that dosen't fall off the tub constantly, or fall apart into pieces.

This castle does not foam and the picture on the box is very misleading. If you continually pump the button, a small amount of foam will appear just above the bubble reservoir, but that's all, folks. Also, the pieces are all removable (read: you're going to lose them). My 3-yr-old played with this toy in the bath for an hour, so it does have some appeal, but the fact that it doesn't foam has me very aggravated. It's also ugly.

I love any toy my 1 yr old daughter and 4 yr old son can play with. They both love this one. It does foam if you add a little shaqmpoo and water to the castle, and i believe they learn cause and effect. But, it is a bath toy, let the kids have some good, clean fun!

We bought this toy for my 15 month old daughter for Christmas. She has already figured out how to work the "trap door", and loves playing with the three figures that comes with the castle. When I make bubbles for her, she loves to pick them up, explore them, and laughs when I tickle her nose with them. The only downfall of this toy is the strap that attaches to the back of the toy. You are suppose to wrap the strap around the side of your bathtub, however, it is not long enough to wrap all the way to the other side. This makes the toy sit lower in the tub than I'd like, making the wheel harder to spin.

I thought this would be a wonderful, safe toy for my two young boys to play with in the tub. But beware, while the tails on the 3 plastic characters that come with the game aren't sharp, it was enough to create a one inch long slice near my son's anus when he accidently sat on the plastic Barney. It bled a lot and now he has to take baking soda baths, no wipey's, and we have to watch for any additional bleeding. I'm sure the next several days will be very uncomfortable for him.

I like this toy because it has cut down on bath toy clutter. We were able to put that net of toys away and just have this in the tub for now. My 3 year old son likes to pour water down the slide, and he plays with the characters in the water separate from the castle. He's had this toy for 3 months and still gets excited to play with it.

I would buy this item again, but I was disappointed with the "bubble making". However, our 3 girls have loved it anyway. It gives them something to do while in the tub. They enjoy the "water play" that it inspires.

My 2yr old son LOVED this gift when he opened it! He was so excited to play with it in the tub. I was disappointed that the suction cups need reattached all the time. It only foams when you push the button 20 times and at that point the suction come loose!!! Aside from that he loves playing with the characters and watching water come out of the various spots.
