What do you store your kids bath toys in?

I need something good!

We have a little mesh bag that came with some toys that suctions onto the side of the tub, but most of the time we just let them hang out on the ledge of the tub so they can air out.

I use one of those string bags sold at natural food stores. After a bath, I hang it from the shower until it quits dripping, then I move it to the hook on the back of the bathroom door.

I originally bought a froggy "scoop" to pick up the toys (it mounts on the wall) but it was awful!!! It constantly fell down, so I returned it.

so instead I got the mesh bag for $3 and it works very well!

We just leave the few we have in the bath when done. We never use the bath except for play time a few nights a week and we have so few toys, and none of them mold. If we get more then the three toys we have, we will probably get a mesh bag.

We have a red mesh bag with suctions that sticks to the tiled wall of the bathtub. It works well, and is fairly large. I'm not sure where we got it, DH came home with it one day a few months ago.

Another mesh bag vote

My DH drilled holes in a big pail - after the bath, we throw all the toys in the pail, they drain, and if someone else needs to use the shower, easily removed.

Plastic laundry basket, a small one.

Every so often I scrub it down really well

This is what we do also.

I have a weave basket, works well for all the rubber duckies!

I bought a shower tote, it's a little bigger than a shoe box, and has holes on all sides. Toys get put back in it as the tub drains. I leave them to dry right in the tub. It can be easily removed for the next person (and the toys are usually dry by then, if not we just place it over the sink or on the bath mat.)

I also have a few individual suction hooks, the big ones that they sell at Christmas time to hang wreaths, but you can find them anytime too. These are awesome for the few soft toys that have loops for hanging. They are great for washcloths and scrunchies too.

We have a little plastic basket with an open weave. The toys go in there after the bath and the whole thing just stays in the bathtub.
For cleaning I just fill the tub with vinegar and water and let the toys soak awhile. I think it's sufficient because DS hasn't gotten sick yet.

I have a plastic milk crate. It stays in the tub until someone needs to shower and then it is put into the linen closet.

It works.

I bought DS some toys for the beach and use the hard plastic tote that they came in for bath toys (I have a big cotton loop bag for the beach toys!). I keep the tote in the bath when we're not in there and just remove it when one of us showers. It's great b/c it drains nicely.

This is what we do, too.

The bathtub.

We have three giant (and I mean GIANT ) rubber duckies that we put above the toilet seat on the counter and they look really cute there. For the other bath toys, I have a basket that I keep at the bottom of the linen closet (which is in the bathroom..gotta love apartment living ) and we just keep it there. It works out really well for clean-up after the bath.
