Water Play Mat Russell Hobbs model 327405 — children's water activity toy

Russell Hobbs Water Play Mat model 327405 is a floor-based sensory toy for infants and toddlers that provides a soft, water-filled surface for supervised play.

This water activity toy supports short sessions of quiet floor play at home or in childcare settings and is suitable for close adult supervision during use.
