A plastic toy sinks if its density is greater than that of the water it is in. Density is defined as mass per unit volume; if the toy's mass is heavy relative to its size, it will displace less water than its own weight, causing it to sink. Additionally, if the toy has air-filled cavities or is designed to float, it may remain on the surface instead.
