What do you think? It was this one in particular, that we were looking at.

The problem is that our bathroom is so small we can't fit a stepstool in front of the sink to give DD access to a mirror, basin, etc., but we do have a bit of room beside the sink, where we could fit this. It seems like a good solution to give DD a little independence so -- aside from the cost, to which:

: -- is this idea so crazy it might work?

Please weigh in!

It doesn't look like your DD would actually be able to wash her hands in the play sink, so I don't think it would give her actual independence for hygiene stuff. At least for me, I wouldn't put a toy in the bathroom because I don't like to encourage lots of play in the bathroom -- it's the one room where I feel I really have to watch her like a hawk and where I don't much feel like lingering/hanging out myself.

But it looks like a nifty toy for elsewhere in the house.

But I still think the one you posted in the OP is cute!

Another idea might be just to do a wash basin and pitcher on a small table, like this. It's standard in Montessori classrooms.
