Be Careful When Taking Bath Photos of Your Tots
What family album doesn't include a bath photo? An Arizona family may be thinking twice before ever having such snapshots developed again. The couple's three children were taken from them and placed in foster care after a Wal-Mart employee discovered nude images of the kids while printing up the clan's vacation photos.
Coocoose Swaddle Keeps Mama Dry Before Wrapping Baby
Baby might be in the tub, but inevitably mama gets wet! Bath time with a splish splashing tot can turn the bathroom into a site for full blown waterworks.
The Coocoose apron towel ($60) soaks up some of the wetness as it is worn as an apron by the bath-giver during tub time and then serves as a warm wrap once the child gets out of the tub.
Do You Know Your Baby Bath Basics?
Few activities involving a newborn frighten new parents as much as bath time. The idea of a non-cooperative child soaped up and slippery is enough to get parents begging the grandparents for help.
Take our quiz and see just how much you know about bathing a newborn.
Baby-Friendly Bath Products
Few scents scream "baby" more than Johnson and Johnson's pink lotion. If it weren't for reports of the brand giant using toxins in its products, I'd lather my tot in it. Wary of its effects, I have turned to a list of "safer" goods to keep my wee one clean.
Lil Tip: Tearless Tub Time
Even soaps that claim to be "Tear Free" can cause a youngster to squeal when it hits their wee eyes. My sweet pea isn't such a fan of leaning back and letting me douse her with a bucket so I've found an easier way to avoid a teary tub.
Hand your child a rolled up or folded washcloth and have her hold it over her eyes.
Liven Up Bath Time With Tiny Tillia
Finding cute and fun toddler bath products that aren't connected with a television character is not an easy task. Tiny Tillia is an adorable line of paraben-free and earth-friendly bath, body and play products. Created by London-based designer Tiffany Lerman, novelist Jackie Collins's daughter, the line includes head to toe foam washes, shampoos, bubble baths and hand sanitizers ($16) featuring a cast of whimsical cartoon characters based on Lerman's family.
When Did Your Babe Move From Bath to Shower?
Rub a dub dub, when is it time to graduate from the tub? Almost three quarters of you have babies that love the bath, but there comes a time when children start eyeing the shower. We're not quite there yet, though my 2-year-old son definitely wonders why his big sister sometimes washes off standing up.
Lil Find: Molle Dog Washcloth
Even though 73 percent of you have lil ones that love bath time I know convincing tots to clean off facepaint, dough and the day's grime isn't always easy. When my children say they'd rather stay dirty I whip out the bath boats or funny soap to help make bath time, playtime.
I adore this Molle Dog Washcloth that adds a little girlie and French touch to cleaning up.
Palm-Palms Baby Bath Grips: Kid Friendly or Are You Kidding?
Bath time can be rather tricky. First you have to get a usually fussy or eager babe into the water. Then, it's time to lather them up without them slipping through your fingers.
Soapstache Soap: Dress Up and Dress Down For Bath Time Fun
I recently learned 72 percent of your children love bath time — a statistic I can't quite believe.
My children are generally happy about bath time, but there are days when all the wooden boats and theatrics my husband and I can muster aren't enough to keep them scrub-a-dub-dubbing.
This Soapstache Soap ($5) just may be my next gimmick.
