Is this a good tub for a highly active 3 1/2 month old baby? He splashes, plays, chases ducks with his feet, and constantly jumps the bump in others.

Yes, this tub is suitable from infant to early toddler years. There are two positions that can be used, depending on whether your baby can sit on their own or not. My baby is 8 weeks old and I use the reclining position. I place a small towel on the reclining area to cushion it and to keep her from sliding around. The raised area in the middle ensures the baby is secure. I love the design and feel it is very safe.

This is a great tub for a highly active baby. I got it when my daughter was 3 months old, and she too loves to splash around a lot. My daughter is not 9 months old and has transitioned to the other side that allows her to sit up, and I think she loves the tub even more now!!

I think it is certainly better than other baths because it is bigger and has more space, so he will have space for his ducks. My daugther is older and she sits in this tub and plays with little turtles.

It would be too small for your baby...I expect that I can use it until 24 mons.

If he can sit up on his own, yes. If not, there's a portion of the tub you can lay him down on (slightly elevated). But DO NOT LEAVE HIM ALONE, not even for a second. It's very slippery when wet.

Although my son is just 25 months, I would say yes, this is a good product for 2.5-3.5 yr old boys as well. The splash guard is a big help with boys and this seat has one. Granted, depending on how erect his boy parts are at the time, you may still need to hold it down or show him how so he doesn't shoot over it and onto the floor. But that is the case with any of the potty seats, even those with splash guards. That said, this seat is also nice because it is padded so it's comfortable for them to sit there a while if they need to while they try to do their business. The suction cups hold it in place well too so they feel sturdy while they sit on it. Although my son is just 25 months, I would say yes, this is a good product for 2.5-3.5 yr old boys as well.

The tub is 79 x 48 cm and 20 h, a month old baby fits perfect, but I don't think it's the best place for swimming inside. It's better used for babies that sits by them self,

No but if your baby can sit up, they shouldn't move much. It's a fairly small tub and worked well for us.

After three weeks, Toomba could jump up and down without pain. He is running around and we play together. Give this a chance. The Dasuquin was recommended by the vet.

Also great for space saveing reasons. i used it for my son from newborn until 6 months. love this tub. i am very sad my son has now outgrow it. highly recommend. wish they made something simular for 6 month plus...

Yes, but our guy sweats a lot from just being a pretty active/jumping baby ... fyi, we live in San Francisco, so not sure what we'd do with him in Phoenix. It's usually just his head that comes away sweaty in the back. Not a big deal so far. The seat is solid and relatively easy to use (we have it rear-facing and it takes a little maneuvering to get him into the seat while also not bonking his head on the top of our Jeep Grand Cherokee - I think this will get harder for a little while, and then easier when we turn it around and he can climb into it himself).

It's great for a newborn. Actually, the nonslip surface made me feel much more confident than the little plastic whale tub we originally had, and seems more comfy, too. Also, it sits low to the ground so that baby is more in the water than in other bath seats, and thus stays warmer. The only catch is that you need to put it in the actual tub (vs. the sink).

My youngest was 12 months. He was over 20 lbs and had been walking (more like running!) for a while. He did great but within a few weeks was able to get out on his own WHILE I was biking (he is a Houdini). Scary! I would say that, as long as your baby sits up very well on their own and isn't a squirmer, they should be fine.

We've been riding 3-5 times a week for about 6 weeks. He hasn't complained about the seat, so I assume he's fine. I give him a little warning before we hit a bump so he's aware/not surprised. He's so far never come even close to falling off. He just turned 3.5.

Probably, it is slightly larger than most of the other inflatable type tubs. I think the description says up to 1 year. I would contact a seller with the question. I have only give the duck as baby gifts.

My son was 2 (and my daughter 3 mo) when I started bathing them together. There is room in the tub, though not by much - the older child wont be able to move around and will have to sit in one place! That's not always a bad thing though :) HOWEVER, this tub FLOATS in a tub full of water! And, it rocks bath and forth with even the smallest amount of water in the big tub. I wouldn't recommend it for bathing together - a mesh seat works much better, which is what we used until my daughter was ready to sit on her own.

Still using ours at 9 months old. She can roll over, but doesn't try to do so in the tub. She loves to just lay there and have water poured over her! And when that part of the bath is done we sit her up on it and she just splashes around.

This tub is a great size for a 6 month old. I bought it for my 6 month old daughter and she used it until around 9-10 months....Not because she grew out of it, but because she became better at sitting up in the regular bathtub, therefore she didn't need the support of the Bath N' Bumper.

My baby is less than three months old, therefore I still have not filled up the tub all the way. I filled it just enough for him to lay down and not get water on his face or mouth.

I got this for my 1 year old and she loves it but she loves all ball pits. At 3 years I'm not sure if she will be entertained by it because it isn't a deep pit. She might be too advanced for it.

I would say yes if s/he is already comfortable in the water and quite strong. But for most 18 month olds I would say no. Id try something like this Swim School Aqua Tot Trainer
