Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Tell me about bath time....

Our LO is about to turn one next week and she has outgrown the inflatable bath tub we've been using.  What do you all use for bathing your LOs, or are you just putting them in the tub without anything special?

 

Thanks!

Re: Tell me about bath time....

  • I'm almost ready to transition to the tub.  We're going to buy a faucet cover and either a bath mat, or sticky treaf things for the tub bottom.

  • We've been putting him in the tub since he could sit well- 7 months. I fill it to his hips because he likes to play on his belly. Nothing special, no bath mat since the tub is textured and nothing sticks to it.

  • We have had our DS in the regular tub since he could sit well on his own too. We just have a bath mat-bought it at target and fill the bath less than half full. Also have a mesh bag suctioned to the wall with toys

  • We have an alligator bath mat from IKEA that we put down, a frog faucet cover (which I highly recommend, before we had it he slipped and smacked his head), and a frog toy holder.

  • We just put her in the tub.  We had a bath at at first because she would slide around on her butt.  However we transitioned to the regular tub at 6 month old.  We stopped using it around 11/12 months because it was hard to keep clean.

    for our next baby I plan to get those stickers for the tub instead.

  • We have been putting her in the big tub for a while now. Gives her room to crawl around and play. If we dont get in with her We sit over the side. Also she loves shower time. We cover the drain just enough so she has water to splash in. Clearly we are in there with her as well.

  • She's been in the regular tub since she could sit up well and was tired of being confined, about 8 - 9 months.

    We have nothing on our tub floor and she does great.  Every now and then if she gets really excited she'll fly backwards, but she thinks its funny!  We do have a faucet cover, which has come in handy for us.

  • LO has been in the normal bath tub for a while now.  We just have a few inches of water and some bath toys in there with him.  He plays for a few minutes, we clean him up and then let him play until the water gets too cold.

  • Since DD could sit up on her own at around 5-6 months we bathed her in the big tub with a foam mat on the bottom (and of course,  holding her while she was that little).

  • We've always just put her in the regular tub, and I went in with her most of the time.  I think I started staying out when she was 2 or so, because she wanted room to "surf" (lay on her belly in the water).

  • we put her in the big tub when she outgrew her duck, i think around 9 months? ours is textured so we didnt put any grippers or anything, but we do have a faucet cover so she doesnt bump her head. we fill it to her hips.
  • We bought a bath mat and it worked like crap so we don't even use that anymore, just the normal tub. She's a crazy girl during bath time so she slips sometimes but she's never actually gotten hurt.

  • We're transitioning from the bath chair to just sitting there. Our issue has been that she LOVES water, and I'm pretty sure she thinks she's a fish lol. She keeps trying to dive under. Water isn't even that deep. So the chair has been an easy way to keep her contained, but lets her sit up

  • We've  been using the regular bath tub since she could sit up solidly on her own.  We have a faucet cover and we put a bath mat in the tub so she wouldn't slide around in there.
