INTRODUCTION
Pop some bubbles with the Bubble Time Turtle by VTech®! This
cute turtle magically releases bubbles in time with the music and
sounds. Clown fish and light up starfish buttons introduce the sea
animals and play sing-along songs and melodies. There are two
strong suction cups on the back of the turtle allowing it to be easily
attached to the side of the bath or bathroom wall. Let’s pop, pop, pop
some bubbles!
