As every parent knows, rubber duckies and tug boats tend to multiply in the tub. Rather than allowing them to pile up on the bathroom floor or sit in an empty bath once the splish-splashing is over, try the fun and functional Frog Pod.  | | The detachable scoop makes collecting and cleaning tub toys a cinch. | This bright green plastic frog hangs on the bathroom wall and features a detachable scoop that makes collecting and cleaning tub toys a cinch. Simply grab the large handle, sweep up any straggling toys, hold the scoop under the tub's faucet to rinse off its contents, and then snap the entire thing back on the Frog Pod base. It's so easy you might even find your child cleaning up the tub after getting clean upped themselves! A built-in shelf at the top of the wall-mounted base holds shampoo, soap, or other bath products, while additional toys and sponges can be hung from the amphibian's 14 splayed toes. A feature that parents can appreciate: the hard plastic is mildew-resistant.  | | Mount with adhesive strips, suction cups, or screws. | The base can be mounted on any bathroom wall one of three ways: adhesive strips, suction cups, or screws. One set of adhesive strips is included with the Frog Pod, but these are not reusable. A replacement kit of adhesive strips and screws can be purchased separately from the manufacturer. Also available separately from the manufacturer is a wall mount bracket that has eight suction cups attached to it. This bracket can be removed and remounted as often as necessary. Packaging cautions that no more than 10 pounds (10 pounds!) be held by the Frog Pod at any given time.
Editorial Review
As every parent knows, rubber duckies and little toy boats tend to multiply in the bath. Rather than allowing them to lurk underfoot on the bathroom floor or sit forlornly in the empty tub once the splish-splashing is over, why not scoop `em up with the ever-so-cute Frog Pod? This bright green plastic frog can be mounted on any bathroom wall with the included bracket and adhesive. A built-in shelf at the top stores shampoo or other bath products, while (this is the best part) the removable scoop can be used to pick up, rinse, and drain toys. Additional toys or scrubby sponges can be hung from the frog's splayed fingers and toes. There's plenty of room for toys (no more than 10 pounds' worth is the packaging caution…10 pounds!), and the design is charming and appealing to grownups and kids alike. To avoid trouble with the Frog Pod falling off the wall, make sure to follow mounting directions carefully. It's especially important to use a dry wall, allow for a long adhesive curing time, and don't cross the grout with the adhesive strips. Once it's really on, the frog pod should provide handy, stylish, and mildew-free bath toy storage for a good long time. And no yucky, useless suction cups! --Emilie Coulter
Product Description
The Frog Pod, winner of the JPMA 2005 Innovation Award, is a bath toy scoop, drain and storage unit all in one. It is designed to simplify the maintenance of a typical toddler bathtub environment. Simply scoop it up to rinse bath toys in bulk - the Frog Pod helps eliminate dangerous mildew and bath residue on the toys. A hidden shelf provides a convenient space for shampoo and other bath products. The Frog Pod can be attached to virtually any shower or bathtub wall. Base is simple to detach from the adhesive bracket for easy cleaning. NOTE: This is not a toy. Never leave a child unattended when bathing. This product should always be mounted up out of reach of toddlers and used only under adult supervision. Never apply excessive force to or allow children to hang onto or from Frog Pod. Do not load the Frog with more than 10 pounds of toys or accessories. Prior to installation remove packaging and fasteners and discard properly.

 I Love Love Love this product!!! September 4, 2008
D. Smith (Lake County, FL)
I love this product. I bought it for my daughter about 6 months ago. It comes with three ways to attach it to the wall. I chose to use the suction cups because we are renting and I didn't want to damage the walls. It holds all of her many bath toys. At the top you can fit one bottle (20 oz) of Baby shampoo and 2 (15 oz) bottles of baby wash. The part that holds the toys comes off and can be used to scoop up the toys and run under the water to clean. The toes are good to hang sponges and other toys. It has only fallen off once after about 5 months with the suction cups, but I just stuck it back up and haven't heard a thing since. I love it so much I just bought another one for my niece who's not even born yet.
It sticks September 4, 2008
Isabelle Green (Berkeley)
I tried the advice of one reviewer here who suggested wetting both the tile/shower surface as well as the suction cups before adhering the frog pod. It's worked for several days with no crashes so far. I tried the manufacturer's suggestions originally that said apply the suction cups dry, but that fell down in less than five minutes. We've also taken showers and used the pod for 1 bath so far, and it has stayed put.
Terrific Product September 2, 2008
Kylee (Texas)
My daughter received the Frog Pod for her first birthday and we love it! We had the same problem as other reviewers-the pod adhesive didn't stick and the pod fell of the wall but I emailed Boon right away and they emailed me back the same day!! They sent me a new adhesive that works great! It hasn't budged since I put it back up! I would recommend that you contact the company if you have any problems, they really have great customer service!
A convenient place to keep bath toys September 1, 2008
ChopStixs (Maricopa, AZ)
This has proven to be a stylish and convenient place to keep the bath toys. Happy with this product overall.
 Better suction? August 28, 2008
S. Serbinski (Illinois)
It's a great concept - but getting it to stick to the bathroom wall can be a challenge unless you're willing to drill holes! Overall, good product..I just need better solution
