Abstract:
1. A combination bath scrub ball and water toy comprising a mesh scrub ball with a toy member attached thereto by attachment means, said mesh ball formed of multiple folds of mesh fabric fastened in position via a tie cord surrounding and cinching said fabric folds to maintain said ball shape, said toy member having a hollow flexible wall body and including a bottom wall in turn having an attachment opening therethrough, said attachment means including an attachment cord of a diameter less than that of said attachment opening and having an enlarged first end larger than said attachment opening and extending through said bottom wall attachment opening and a second end in turn attached to said tie cord so as to fasten said toy member to said bath ball, said bottom wall being nestled among the folds of said bath ball such that when the hollow body is at least partially submerged in water and then air is forced out of said attachment opening by inwardly compressing said body so that water is drawn upwardly into said body through said attachment opening as well as portions of said bath mesh fabric to filter the water entering the body when the compressive action in the body is released, said hollow body having a second squirt opening extending through the body wall at a level above said attachment opening such that at least a portion of the water within the body is forced out of said squirt opening when the body is again inwardly compressed.
