A collapsible bathtub adapted for placement on top of a mattress employs a horizontal flexible plastic rectangular sheet having two opposite sides and two opposite ends. First and second flexible plastic parallel side walls are integral with the sheet, each side wall having a collapsed position at which it is essentially coplanar with the sheet, each side wall having an erect position at which it extends vertically upwards from a corresponding one of the two sides of the sheet; First and second flexible plastic end walls disposed at right angles to said side walls are integral with said sheet. Each end of each end wall is secured to a corresponding end of a corresponding side wall, each end wall having a collapsed position at which it is essentially coplanar with said sheet and having an erect position at which it extends vertically upwards from a corresponding one of the two ends of the sheet; First and second sockets are secured to the first end wall, each of the first and second sockets being disposed adjacent a corresponding one of the side walls; Third and fourth sockets are secured to the second end wall, each of the third and fourth sockets being disposed adjacent a corresponding one of the side walls; a first elongated socket engaging member is detachably secured to said first side wall and, when all walls are in erect positions, extends between and engages the first and third sockets; a second elongated socket engaging member is detachably secured to said second side wall and, when all walls are in erect positions, extends between and engages the second and fourth sockets.
