Children love playing in their baths. Why not make it even more fun by playing a few bathtime games that will give you and your child some important bonding time, a get him clean at the same time?

Bubble Bath: Every child loves a bubble bath. Choose a no-tear bubble bath solution, and let your child play away.

Bubble Bath: Take out your toddler's bubble-blowing solution and wand---and you won't need to worry about getting anything wet because everything already is!

Sponge Shapes: Choose a number of differently colored sponges and cut it shapes or alphabet letters with scissors. Add these to your child's bath and let him/her our words with the letters or play make-believe with other shapes.

Squirt Toys: Take out your child's squirt toys and filler up, because it's going to get wet.

Rain Water: Poke holes into the bottom of a plastic container (like a pop bottle). Fill with water, and give your child a rains bath while he/she's in the tub.

As always remember never to leave your toddler unattended in his bath. Bathtime fun should be shared by both parent and child anyway!
