A two-piece molded folding toy comprising:

• a first basin with an outer surface, an inner surface and two recesses spaced apart and facing away from each other;
• and
• a second basin with an outer surface, an inner surface and two projections spaced apart from each other, the second basin is connected to the first basin;
• wherein one recess cradles one projection when the folding toy is either opened or closed and the second projection engages the second recess in a locking arrangement when the folding toy is opened.

A two-piece molded folding toy comprising:

• a first basin having an outer surface and a cavity with an inner surface;
• a second basin connected to said first basin, said second basin having an outer surface and a cavity with an inner surface wherein said second basin is hingedly connected to said first basin;
• and
• a raised structure positioned within the cavity of the second basin, the second basin folds over the first basin so that the inner surface of the second basin faces the inner surface of the first basin, and wherein the raised structure within the cavity of the second basin is positioned in the cavity of the first basin, whereby the raised structure prevents entrapment by occupying space in the cavity of the first basin when the cavity of the second basin covers the cavity of the first basin, such that the first basin and second basin are unable to close upon and entrap a child positioned in either cavity.
