When you let young kids choose bathroom accessories, you're not going to wind up with the most stylish bathroom on the block.  To replace a worn-out nonslip tub mat, my younger son picked out a set of 6 frogs that you can stand on in the tub, instead of a mat.

His big brother thought that the bug-eyes on the frogs were pretty creepy and made jokes about that for days after we got them.

Then one night as the youngest got ready to take his shower, my daughter suggested that he use the frogs to decorate the walls and ceiling around the tub.  “Won’t everyone be surprised in the morning when they come in here to take a shower?” Many giggles later, the frogs were all strategically placed around the tub.

Sure enough, his older brother was surprised in the morning! He thought it was very funny–and when I came into the bathroom a little while ago I discovered that my older son had rearranged the frogs again.

I don’t think those frogs will see the bottom of the tub for a long time, but the boys are having great fun with them!

I guess I'll have to find another alternative to keep our tub slip-free.
