Please note: I haven't tried these out in the bath so I don't know how well they would float upright.  Wood swells when it stays wet which may mean that that it doesn't last as long as you'd hope.  Ideal though as a toy in a dry environment.

Comes in four colours.  We will send you one boat with the colour chosen at random.

This is a simple wooden shape sorter that sells well in our shop.  We have one on display and both adults and children play with it. Nothing particularly fancy about it but people like it and it's good value.  Comes with six different shapes.  Everybody enjoys slotting them into the correct holes but it's funny how many people can't work out how to retrieve them.
