Fisher-Price Spray-n-Lights Whale Bath is available in Travel Bathing Kits
Rub-a-dub-dub, there's a whale in the tub! Splishin', splashin' and sprayin' all around baby's bath, he moves as his spout lights up. Baby will love the water-spraying action and have fun with a fish flutterball that floats! Requires 3 AA batteries

My children love bath time and more importantly love playing with bath toys in the bath. The Spray-n-Lights Whale bath toy from Fisher Price is a good bath toy and my little ones are really enjoying playing with it. The Whale is blue and has a plastic water spurt coming out of his head on the top which you press to turn the Whale on and off. The water spurt lights up and when in the bath shoots out water in a fountain effect which is very similar to another bath toy (a starfish that shot out a water fountain) my children have. The Whale also comes with a see through ball that has a spinning fish inside and my children love trying to balance the ball on top of the Whales fountain (it doesn't stay on though as the water shoots it off). It does say on the box that the fish ball can be balanced on the Whales tail as this encourages fine motor skills and hand-eye co-ordination but my children like trying to balance the ball in the water fountain.
The Whale takes 3 AA...

This product has had some really negative reviews, mainly focusing on the fact that water has gotten into the battery compartment and corroded the batteries, stopping the whale working. Being mindful of this, we made sure the screws were done up really tight and have dried our whale out after each bath by leaving it to dry on the radiator. 2 weeks in and there is no sign of corrosion inside, but if this does occur in the future, I will update this review.
In terms of play value, this toy is great fun. The whale is quite heavy so may be tricky for little ones to pick up but our toddler has no problems. When the top is pressed the whale squirts out water and the blue watery design on the top lights up for about 30 seconds. The water squirts gently enough to be fun even for tiny babies, but was still very entertaining for us. There is a little ball supplied, which can be balanced on the whale's tail. I am a little disappointed that this doesn't stay up in the squirting...

I'd like to say this is for me..... but in reality my two grandchildren have enjoyed this much more.
So what we have here is a typically well made Fisher Price toy that's great fun for small children at bath time. Like all small children, my grandkids simply love the bath and anything that adds to the fun is fine by me. This toy does.
To be honest all it actually does is squirt water in a short (120mm) fountain from the top. But that's enough to provide a bit of fun. What it does not do is move the ball shown on the picture which stupidly I thought it might. Of course to do that it would have to really pump some water and if it did, your bathroom would very quickly end up soaked. The ball is actually meant to be balanced on the tail of the whale and I assume that this is to help a child's motor skills.
Negatives? Well, it's quite heavy and if swung by an enthusiastic child could clonk someone a good'un. I don't know how long the pump would run before...
