It was pretty easy to pick out; I think Water Symphony is the worst toy I’ve ever paid money for. This one probably looks familiar – I can remember actually wanting to play with this after seeing commercials for it as a child myself. So I finally had an excuse, 5 years ago, when my son was old enough to play with toys in the bathtub. Off I headed for the store! Got my plastic dolphins and hurried home to what I imagined was a symphony of sound.

Right?

Wrong.

It’s darn near impossible to get any sound out of these dolphins at all. I tried it for YEARS – with both of my first two kids – and got really proficient at getting a sound about 10% of the time. So that was really disappointing. But it doesn’t stop there. The most annoying thing is that the “floats” that the dolphins sit in, won’t stay linked together like they are supposed to. Forget it!

I think the most value this toy brought was helping to review colors when my children were learning them. And my older daughter enjoyed pretending that the floats were bracelets. I tossed the dolphins and just kept the rings for her, until she outgrew them…at which point I was delighted to chuck them, too.

Approximate Retail: $19.99
Buy it Online (If you want to…)
