Madelyn is on the tail end of potty training and has used the Boon Potty Bench almost since beginning the potty training process.  The potty bench has two storage compartments with sliding doors, one on each side of the seat.  What I love is that the doors won’t open when the lid is down which makes it so that Madelyn can’t play with what’s inside unless she is sitting on the potty during which the compartment doors will open.
We have wipes in one compartment and random things in the other side for when Madelyn wants to spend an especially long time on the potty.  One storage compartment has a toilet paper roll holder but I prefer to use wet wipes so we use that compartment for the ‘other things’.  Having a toilet paper holder is a cool idea though.  There is a pee deflector that can stay on the potty with the lid up or down and with the toilet drawer in or out.  It doesn’t have to be taken off unless you want to clean it or remove it if your toddler doesn’t need it.

The Boon Potty Bench makes a great stool for Madelyn to use at the sink where she washes her hands and I use it to sit on when giving the kids a bath.  The toilet drawer is easy to remove after Madelyn uses it.  She usually takes the drawer out, sings her special ‘pee pee’ song and then gives it to me to pour into the big potty. 

Overall, the Boon Potty Bench is one of the best that I’ve seen.  I love the simple design and color much better than some I’ve seen that play music, make sounds, and could probably microwave your food.  🙂

Suds and Surprise Dora is the best of both worlds for Madelyn. 
She would take four baths a day if I let her.  Now with having Dora in the tub it’s hard to convince her that she’s already clean and doesn’t need a fifth bath.  Madelyn can brush Dora’s hair, put hair clips in her hair, and pour water on Dora’s head.  Gone are the days when it was my head that was getting doused with water during bath time!  Yeah!

Suds and Surprise Dora is a fun bath toy that does lots of neat things.  Suds and Surprise Dora is a styling head that you can use in and out of
the tub. Use cold water in
the applicator to add butterfly and star face paint to Dora’s cheeks.  Madelyn’s favorite thing to do with Dora is put the color changing hair clips in her hair.  Poor Dora has had some funky hairdo’s.

The included base
suctions securely to the bathtub wall so while Madelyn is tugging on Dora’s hair with the comb, Dora stays put.   In warm water, the deco in Dora’s
swim suit changes and an undersea design appears on her face.  You can
also pour warm water from the sea horse pitcher to add pink streaks to
Dora’s hair.  There are so many ways kids can play with Suds and Surprise Dora that I can see this being a bath toy that sticks around for a long while… in our house at least. 

For even more fun kids can put Dora on a table and play ‘hair dresser’ or suction it to a window or the refrigerator.  Madelyn prefers to keep Dora in the bathtub for now.
