How does the Robo Turtle turn on?

It uses water-activated technology. Drop it in water and the swimming motion starts; lift it out and it stops.

Can it swim in a pool?

It is built for water play, but it is small and not remote controlled, so a bathtub, sink or shallow pool suits it better than deep water.

Yes. It runs on standard batteries rather than a rechargeable pack, so keep spares on hand for frequent bath use.

ZURU says it can swim in five different directions, changing course on its own as it moves.

Yes. It can move on land as well as swim, so kids can play with it on the floor between baths.

Yes. There are four colors in the range, and this set pairs the green and pink turtles.
