I am really excited for this toy. I bought it during the "toy of the day sale" but it looks so much better in person. I thought it was a simple bath toy but now realize it has linking abilities, shape sorters, and mildew resistant coating. The toys all float well and they look extremely well made. Not to mention the great packaging that drew my daughter to it as soon as it came out of the shipping box! My daughter absolutely loves them already!!! I have to admit when I bought them I did not pay too much attention to them due to the wonderful sale that Amazon had, but now I am extremely happy with my purchase!!

Update 2009 We still have these in our bathtub and unlike many other bath toys these are still around. Both my kids love to hook them together (a little difficult as the water does separate them often). My kids learned both colors and shapes from these toys and they have not had any mildew or anything. I am extremely happy with this purchase :)

Dec 29 2012We did finally get rid of these bath toys. I will say they had to be the longest lasting bath toys we have ever had and probably ever will have as my kids are now 5 and 6 (almost 7). Regardless after about 4 years they did start to show signs of mold even though they are mold resistant. More then likely one of them got a hole in it or something but these bath toys are worth their weight in gold with how long they lasted. When I bought these my daughter could barely talk and my youngest was too little to be in the bathtub. These boats helped teach my kids colors, shapes and basic concepts of fitting the shapes in the hole. There are only a few purchases I can remember years later and this was one of them!

These bath toys have something you wouldn't normally think of as wonderful till after you've owned enough to see that bath toys accumulate MILDEW! these do NOT which makes them last forever. I used to throw away bath toy after bath toy because of mildew getting stuck inside the toy or in small cracks. these do not have a hole that lets in water that cannot get out. my son has really enjoyed these and lines them up and matches the shapes. really wonderful toy that can LAST!

Not only does each boat have a shape on its sail, the same shape is on the base of its sail post and in the deck of the boat. For example, the star-shaped post of the orange boat will only fit into the star-shaped hole on the orange boat's deck. It's a fun way to practice fine motor skills as well as learning shapes and colors.

Honest reviews on Learning Resources - Smart Splash  Sail Away Shapes

My kids, 5 and 3 years old, love the boats. They especially love connecting them together and making a "train" on the edge of the bathtub. It took a lot of convincing to keep the boats in the tub as I did not want them to get dirty on the floor. It took even more convincing to stop my 3-year-old from taking them straight out of the bath to bed to sleep with. My 5-year-old loves putting the boats in a certain order by colors and shapes. I thought she may be too old for them but she enjoys them as much as my 3-year-old.

My 14 month old finds these SO frustrating because they link together but come apart very easily. They also let water get trapped inside them so I am sure they will eventually go moldy. I WAS looking for toys with no hole for water to get in, guess I will keep looking.
