Just when you thought you’d heard the last of that song…here comes the Zuru Robo Alive Baby Shark Bath Toy — and yep, it plays the Baby Shark song with its underwater speakers! Take a look at a video demo to check it out in action. Water-activated, the shark starts swimming and singing as soon as you place it in water. If untouched, it turns itself off after swimming and singing for four minutes; just pick it up and put it back in the water again to restart it. Comes with an instruction manual and all the batteries you’ll need. Suitable for ages 18 months and up. Get your kiddo their very own Zuro Robo Alive Baby Shark Bath Toy here for $16.00.
