Do you allow your kids to play in the sink?

Or is just my kids that try to get away with this?  They like to try to sneak into the bathroom and "wash" toys.

Yes.  They have both gone through phases of wanting to 'wash dishes'.  I let them have 10 minutes or so.  2 strikes for spills on the floor before they are cut off. 1 if it is intentional.

I give them a bowl of water to cut down on wasted water.  They like washing their tea sets and having polly pocket pool parties.

yes but she knows she has to ask me first.

Yup. My kids are obessed with washing their hands and brushing their teeth so I will allow a few minutes to "play" in the bathroom sink when we are upstairs.

LOL!  My DD does the same thing!  She loves to bathe her dolls.  DS is over that stage thank heavens.  It drives me nuts b/c she comes out soaking wet, asking for new clothes and the bathroom gets messy.

Yes DD loves to play in the sink and wash her tea pots and give her barbies a bath. She usually plays for 10 mins as long as she doesn't spill water intentionally.

Sometimes. I usually just put towels down and let her have at it. It keeps her busy and I can get stuff done.

This is a normal winter activity for us.  Strip them down, put some towels on the floor, fill up both sides of the kitchen sink and let them go to town with whatever toys they choose.

yes. She loves it, and I love getting clean dishes.

Yes. In fact, DD1 has a bowl full of water on the table and is having a pool party with her dinosaurs and her polly pockets. If it keeps her entertained, I am all for it!
