Glug Glug jug

Jonah likes going into the bathroom filling up an aluminum water bottle with water and pouring it all down the drain. It's a waste of water of course.
Recently Grace bought a Glug Glug jug. It is a pitcher made to look like a fish. Not only this, when you tip it to pour out water it air is let into the handle. When the pitcher is set up right again an air pocket is created and the bubbles are temporarily trapped. As they bubble out, they make a glug glug sound.

This is pretty entertaining for the kids, they could do it all day, and I knew that so I had them take turns pouring water into a bucket and then we refill the pitcher. Noah eventually figured out how to do it , sort of. Jonah somehow always manages to pour the water from the side so that it doesn't always make the sound. They could do this all day, but I'm afraid that at some point, the ceramic pitcher will be dropped and someone will be cut. Or at the very least there will be water everywhere. I guess that's not so bad though.

By the time they have the motor skills to play with such a jug with out dropping it, will they still find it interesting?
