Best Baby Bathtubs, According to Parents Who Use Them All the Time

This Fisher-Price tub grows right along with your baby and can be used in a variety of ways: It features a sling to cradle newborns, inserts that will keep babies from slipping and sliding and a sit-me-up support to steady babies in the tub. Once your little one becomes a toddler and has outgrown the seat, remove the insert and he’ll have plenty of room to splash. The tub comes with a squeeze bottle and scoop for washing, and it also has a hook for easy drying and storage. It's about 30 inches long and weighs less than 5 pounds, so it's about average size for a baby bathtub.
