Have a little one that resists baths?
There’s hope. Here’s how you can make bath time fun again for both you and your bundle of joy.
Songs – Seriously, who doesn’t like music? The good thing is that, any song will do. Singing to your baby helps expand language skills, teaches about rhythm, and can help soothe and relax. Your baby will enjoy hearing your voice, so start singing! Even if your pitch isn’t perfect, your baby will love it.
Toys – Toys are amazing for building your baby’s skills. When a toy splashes in the water, your baby learns cause and effect. Rubber ducks and other creatures encourage imaginative play, while letters and numbers introduce the ABCs and 1-2-3s.
Splash It – Fill the tub with just enough water to cover his feet and let him sit and splash around in there, gradually adding water as he gets more comfortable. Also, buy a non-skid mat; he’ll feel more secure if he’s not slipping around.
Talk to your baby – Start by identifying which body parts you’re cleaning to help baby learn. Tell them a story too, if you can. This will help expand vocabulary and make each bath time a unique and fun experience.
