I'm looking for anti-slip removable decals that I can put on the bottom of a shower or tub. But I'm not even sure if something like this even exists! DD keeps trying to get out of her baby tub so I'm thinking about making the switch to the big tub, but it's so slippery!

I did a search in this forum but couldn't really find anything.

Any recommendations or ideas are greatly appreciated!!!

TIA!!!

If you have a World Market near you, I saw rubber ducky ones there today in the bath/kids toys section. Good Luck!

What about just a big mat? I have the extra large one from Target. It's just white rubber in a small diamond pattern with suction cups at the bottom. It's not so cute but it works! It's in the shower curtain section.

ACtually, I don't think it's rubber. It's spongier than rubber. Spongy like cushy, not like it soaks up the water. But it's waterproof and lightweight and dries quickly.

How about these (scroll down the page a little)?

I never got around to ordering them but I read about them in a magazine. They come in lots of patterns and are supposed to be easily removable.

My mom got some cute ones at a dollar store, of all places!

Oh, and we're still in a toddler bathtub over here--we switched over from her infant tub to a toddler tub from Ikea (much roomier) at around 18 months and she really likes it. When it's time for a bath, she'll go over to the side, grab her tub and put it in the bathtub. It's pretty cute. :)

However, I did get a bathmat from Ikea that I use and that I will probably use when Kaya does switch over to the real tub. We haven't pushed to switch her over, though, because it would take way too long to fill up the big tub every time we give her a bath! ;)

I have those on our bathtub. Purchased them at Bed, Bath and Beyond.

They are a little bit pricey, but I figured I'd have to look at them everyday, so decided to splurge. I bought one pack each of the fish and starfish/shells. That covered the tub bottom nicely (we have a standard sized tub). After two years of use, a few of them are starting to peel a little at the corners, but my DD#2 likes to pick at them, so I think she's more the culprit LOL.

I used to hate how the bath mats we used to use would get mildewed, despite how careful I would try to be about drying these. These appliques have been great.

Sorry to bump up this thread again, but I just wanted to thank you all for taking the time to reply to my thread. Before I posted, I figured that all the decals out there would not be removable - glad to know I was wrong!

I ended up going to BBB (thanks Chrissy for recommending them), and they had tons of different decals available. I ended up getting the stips kind.

Anyhow, I just wanted to thank you all again for your help!!
