They're fairly well sealed. I mounted mine up high where they won't be submerged, but I wouldn't hesitate to dunk them. I have faith in their ability to keep on working.

Michael, I am unsure at this time as my son has them at camp. Sorry! (I would certainly not try to submerge it, though!) :-)

Although I put them on when I was already in the water, I don't think they are waterproof in the sense you inquire about. (They're now in storage, so I can't try them out for you -- sorry.)

We are in the marine industry building barges and Tug boat and they are exposed to moisture a lot and occasionally get slightly submerged in water (appears to be water resistant), but I don't know if they are water proof... Suggest checking with Manufacturer

They have multiple holes in them. The holes on the bottom are about pinky finger width and all have holes on the top as well for ventilation. Water does not get trapped in them these are not be able to "squirt water". The sharks have the large hole on the bottom and the gills are also vents, the octopus has a large hole on the bottom and a vent in the face, the diver also has a large hole in the bottom and vents in the helmet. I have not had a mold problem and I live in the Pacific Northwest, they air out pretty easy. And they have a nice vanilla sent to them. Hope this helps.

Yes they will float for a while. Don't leave them in the water for a long time.

I would doubt they're "waterproof". You an disassemble them easy enough so you might be able to make them waterproof with the help of a little silicone sealant. 3M makes a silicone spray (very thing) so conceivably you could just spray each one with the 3M stuff and you're good. I will add our kids have loved these - especially at night when they're cruising fast they look really cool. Batteries lasted just under a year for us. I believe we bought a package deal that came with 3 sets.

I would say not waterproof, as in standing water for a while would damage them, but definitely good with wiping down and stuff. Be warned, they don't have a latch on the bottom for the bar that slides out to set up the legs. So, if you pick it up (to move around while in use) the legs fold back up. Definitely a problem if you have stuff on it!

They float but you can hold them down with clear rocks or that gel. They work great!

Holes along the side allow for the flow of water. Plus, getting in and out over the sides naturally introduces water into the bottom. Having the dog sit in cool, refreshing water on a hot day while remaining afloat is one of the floats' best features. Let's me have my float all to myself!

If they have not dried completey , yes they are not water proof. When water hits it runs. Hope this helps.

Yes, they are waterproof so you can throw them in a pool or bathtub. Have fun!!!

The cards are 100% plastic so they won't warp when wet. That said, I don't know how well they would float. Safe to use around the pool? Most definitely. To use them in a pool while swimming? I wouldn't recommend it.

Hello! I tossed one of the medium sized bears in a bowl of water. It roughly floated - hung out on top, but much of the bear was underneath the water's surface, with only a little amount actually above the water. So they do seem to float, but not as good as, say, a rubber ducky.Hope this helps!

All of mine stay in place. We didn't even use the sand. We simply drilled some extra holes in the plastic to fill it with water quicker. They are secured to the deck and don't move or float up.

They have to be plugged into a waterproof device like ipod. Swim with them is just amazing. They worth every penny.
