My son wanted this and hetakes it everywhere with him I mean everywhere in the tub, and all over the house he can take it as it is or change it up to what ever his imaginaton creates for the moment.
This is our second purchase of these toys. We got the Squid Sub first and it has seen hours of play both in the tub and out. Our 5-yr-old saw the paperwork showing how other sets can be interchangeable with that and asked for more, so he got the Shark Ship for Christmas and LOVES IT! It was easy to order, came in plenty of time before Christmas and it doesn't require adult help for him to play with it, although he likes us to play with him.
