Description

As your child gets older, SplashyBIG can help promote and encourage independence at bathtime. Bathing, as opposed to showering, can facilitate a more dignified approach to washing because it allows your child to control their experience which promotes independent self-care skills and encourages improved self-esteem and wellbeing. 

SplashyBIG can also be used in the shower or outdoors to give your child access to new environments – it can provide postural support at the beach while your child feels the waves on their feet or digs their toes into the sand.  

  • Available in blue with a coral (pink) harness or lime (green) harness.
  • Available by Special Order in blue with either a coral (pink) harness or lime (green) harness.

You will receive the following items with your Firefly Splashy:

5-Point Harness
The Splashy Big harness adapts to your child’s postural support needs, with the option of a 5-point or the 3-point pelvic support.

Bumper Supports
4x detachable 'bumper' supports for use anywhere on the seat where support is required (i.e. head rest, pommel, or anti-slide shelf).

Floorsitter
Choose from 26 recline options, from upright at 106 degrees to a fully reclined at 140 degrees.

Stablizer
The new Splashy Big stabilizer feature provides additional stability when used outside of the bath.

What people say about the Firefly Splashy BIG

"Having the Splashy Big seat from Firefly is a game changer. We can use it in the shallow pools as well as the bath. It comes apart easily and fits nicely in the back of the car with the luggage and the wheelchair."
Jana, US

"We like the versatility of the chair from playing at the beach to splashing around at a splash pad or simply taking a bubble bath on vacation- it’s a product that you are able to use in various ways."
Preston, US

FAQ's

What size bath does Splashy Big fit in?

The Splashy Big floorsitter measures 420mm (16.5 inches) wide. Our design team did months of research of bath sizes with the average size in the UK being 700mm wide and in the USA being 760mm – 850mm. However, the true dimensions of the bath floor can be measured by measuring the flat surface of your bath from one side to the other across using a tape measure.

Do you need to use the stabilizer when not in the bath?

Whilst the stabilizer is not needed when using the Splashy Big in the bathtub, it is important to ensure it is fully rotated to its, “locked”, position when outside the bathtub.

Can the suction cups on the floorsitter be positioned differently?

Depending on the width of your bath, will determine where on the floorsitter the suction cups are positioned. You do not have to use all 6 suction cups, however, the suction cups must mirror each other to ensure the seat is stable and secure within the bath.

Can the bumpers be used in different positions?

Yes, depending on the level of support your child requires, will determine where the bumpers are required. The bumpers can be used as laterals, leg guides, pommel, anti-slide shelf or headrest.

Is there only one size?

Yes! The harness and bumpers are all height adjustable and therefore Splashy Big accommodates from an age range of 7 – 14-year-olds or weight limit of 55kg (121lbs).

Is there a higher base with it?

No, the unique feature of Splashy Big is, that it sits low to the base of the bath.

Do I need to take Splashy Big apart to let it dry?

You will need to detach the recline arm from the backrest, but then it can be hung up to dry as one piece. Splashy Big should always be detached before transporting.

Can the floorsitter for Splashy Big be used with the Splashy or GoTo Seat?

No, the new Splashy Big floorsitter has been designed to hold a larger maximum weight and therefore is longer than the current Splashy or GoTo floorsitter.

Does Splashy go into full recline?

Splashy has 26 different recline settings with a maximum recline of 140 degrees.

Where can Splashy be used?

We have tested Splashy Big for use in the bath/shower, for water play activities, in the garden, at the beach.
