Babies take to water like fish. They love to splash and play. There are many products on the market to make bath time enjoyable for baby. Run about an inch to two inches of water in the bathtub. Let baby watch as you fill the tub and add the bubble bath. Choose a few waterproof toys that will remain as bath time toys and throw them in the tub. Baby will squeal with excitement as the toys go floating by.
Undress your baby and put her in the tub. Wash baby as she splashes and plays. Baby won’t even notice you washing their hair. You can buy squeeze soap that baby can use to mark on the bathtub walls. Just make sure that baby doesn’t end up with a mouth full of soap on purpose.
Baby Photo Ideas:
Snap a picture of baby’s eyes lighting up as you run the water in the tub with the bubbles. Take as many photos as you can of baby playing with the toys, chewing on the toys, marking up the walls, and getting their hair shampooed.
Also, give baby a small washcloth and see if she’ll clean herself. If you’d like, toss the washcloth on her lap strategically so you can get pictures that you can frame and display.
Try giving her a piece of ice to play with.
Baby may even roll over onto their belly to get a better look at the bubbles. Take advantage and get some naked baby bottom pictures.
Watch that they don’t drink the bath water, though.
Baby Scrapbooking Ideas:
We need an ocean background for this one. Being in the big tub is like being in the ocean to baby. All that water fascinates them. Use foam fish in bright colors to decorate the undersea world. Let some of baby’s pictures bob on the surface and some sink below the sea surrounded by the fish. You could call it, “Baby’s Bath Adventure”.
