5 Best Toddler Bath Time Tips

Toddler bath time can be busy, wiggly and downright slippery. Moms on Call is here to help you learn how to bathe a toddler and make it fun and stress free for the entire family.

So, what are Moms on Call’s top 5 toddler bath tips with a toddler? 

1. Supervision
   • Provide constant supervision of your toddler during bath time.
2. Consistency
   • As part of our tender time and preparing for bed, your toddler’s bath will be at the same consistent time each day.
3. Be Prepared
   • Have everything you need within an arm’s reach.
     • Bibs  Towel
     • Washcloths
     • Shampoo
     • Nail & Hair Brush
     • Bath Toys!
     • Pajamas
     • Nighttime Diaper or Pull-Up
   • Often our littles will need our hands to help hold them, so having everything we need within an arm’s reach can be a lifesaver. Literally!
4. Encourage your toddler to stay seated with toddler bath activities.
   • Provide them with plenty of distractions to keep them seated.
     • We love toy boats, foam letters, pouring cups  and bubbles!
5. Give them responsibility.
   • Allow your toddler to wash their toes, fingers, hair, etc. Giving them responsibility gives them a sense of accomplishment. What better way to keep their hands busy than by getting themselves clean!

Providing this safe, consistent environment not only gives us special bonding time with our toddlers before bed, but also takes the stress out of it for both of you. Toddler bath time is a great time to sing and play together. Enjoy every giggle and let a splash or two out.
