Kids baths... - Page 3

Riley would live in the bath if we'd let her. Just yesterday after I had given her a bath (a 45 minute bath I might add! LOL ) she sobbed and sobbed when I got into the shower without her. So two minutes into my shower, my spotlessly clean child climbed into the shower with me. I can't imagine what she is going to be like when she is a teenager.

But usually we go every other night for baths for her. Her skin isn't dry so far, but I have dry skin so I am concerned she might get it later.

It used to be every night for my DD's when we were in our old house but since we've been staying with my parents while we build our house it's every other day or sometimes in the mornings before school...

I try to have them bathe every other night. Sometimes, if I am really tired, it goes longer. It also depends on what they have done that day. Two can shower on their own. The other two can not. AND I am the only one that will tell them to go and get in the shower. My husband never thinks of that!

I'm the same as you.

DD takes a bath every night before bedtime. If it were up to her she would love every other night as she usually has to interupt a reality show. Have a great day.

Mine has the option of a bath or shower, either way he will get clean. He is 6.5 yrs old and is able to do either. I will draw his bath if he wants to take a bath and if he wants to shower he does it by himself and he also washes himself.
