Kids Anti Fog Goggles No Leak Age 8-23
Yes, they can play in the regular sink, but who wants to waste that much water?! Bonus if they want to help wash fruit, veggies, and dishes. They can “help” by washing their own!

These are fun, great for increasing dexterity and once they dry they are solid to display or play with.

We all know how much kids love rocks and shells. Needless to say, we take this everywhere!

This is such a fun little game, and easy for the kids to play on their own too.
