They're made from super-absorbent polymers (classified as hydrogels) that can absorb and retain extremely large amounts of a liquid relative to their own mass, thus increasing both size and volume. (This is the same type of material found in disposable baby diapers, adult protective underwear, and feminine menstrual pads.)
The total absorbency and swelling capacity of SAPs are controlled in part by the type and degree of cross-linking to the polymer, but it's also determined greatly by the ionic concentration of the absorbed aqueous solution. Deionized and distilled water can absorb up to ten times more mass than non-distilled, partially salinated water (i.e. tap water). This means that, if a toy can grow up to up to 5 times its own size in tap water, it might grow up to 50 times its size in deionized distilled water.
So if you use deionized distilled water, you really can grow your own life-size girlfriend or pirate ship.

Growing toys are toys that expands in water as they are made up of a material that absorbs so much water that they increase their size as much as 300% or more. That material is not toxic but should still not be digested by children. These toys usually does not last very long especially if you have grown them at their maximum size.

Why does an egg grow bigger in tap water?
I believe it is referred to "dino egg" or "magic egg", expandable water toys. These toys are made from water absorbent polymer which can absorb water and swell to a lot larger size. So absorbing water cause them to grow bigger. For common egg, chicken egg had shell and won't expand, ikura (salmon egg in soy sauce) had no external shell and would expand due to absorption of water.
