How often do your kids bathe and does age play a factor to you?

My daughter is 16mo. old and gets a bath in the morning after breakfast. Her morning bath gets the whole soapy rub down. Its Summer and very hot where we live so in the evening she gets another bath about a half an hour prior to bed. This bath is more of a cool down, rinse off, cool down. She has super sensitive skin so I don't use soap for her evening bath unless she is ACTUALLY dirty. 


WHAT DO YOU DO?

Same here with our 4yo ds


Quoting beco8627:

My boys are 4 and 2 and they get baths or showers every other evening before bed, unless they get super dirty doing something then it may be an every evening thing. They have horribly sensitive skin, so I don't like bathing every single night because their skin dries out and all lotions cause rashes...so basically its every other night, or when they're really yucky

As a infant I bathed them every other day now as toddlers and kindergarten everyday.

Every night now that it's hot and they get sticky and sweaty. In the winter it's every other night.

Every other day usually unless they got really dirty. As they get older and get more sweaty ect, they will start taking them daily/

Every night an hour before bed regardless of weather or how dirty. It's just part of their pre bed time ritual :-)

In the winter, my girls shower every other day...unless they really need it on an "off" day. Their skin dries out too much otherwise.

In the summer it's pretty much mandatory to shower everyday, lol! But since the air isn't as dry, it's not as aggrivating to their skin.

My girls are 5 and 3.5.

DS gets a bath every other day unless he's extra dirty. He's 23 months.
