Fun Ideas for Bath Time Play
With the help of parents and experts, we have pulled together some options to play with your kiddies and forever kick bath time drama to the curb.
1 - Rain Play
Switching from the tub to shower can be daunting. You need to use gimmicks and imagination . Professor Ana Pinheiro teaches a cool technique : leave the shower running weakly and say that it is a " drizzle " . As the child becomes accustomed, then increase the intensity to turn the drizzle into a normal shower . In the process, stimulate the fancy inviting your child to play in puddles on the floor and pick up the drops of " rain " .
This idea is also great to convince children to take cooler "baths" in summer . As the water falls gradually , they do not even notice that the temperature is not hot as usual and you avoid the unnecessary expense of energy .
2 - Pool Baths
You know those tiny cheap inflatable pools? Fill with water, put some toys in and done! - the kids love the idea so much that they don't even notice they are taking bath. Another idea, Leonardo Climaco, interior designer and father of Vinicius, four years old, adds " In the pool, also put some beach buckets and he has a great time . "
3 - Objects and stories
The rubber toys are great for babies because they can bite at ease. Teaching them to sink, play, and showing them the noises the toys make is important. "To stimulate oral language, sing songs, play with the baby and the water . With older children, storytelling with characters is cool. Encourage the child to continue a story you started , " teaches Gabriela Monteiro .
Another cool tip is to paint the tiles with chalk . There is even a special type, suitable for use in the shower . If you can not find it, teach the little one to draw on fogged glass shower box or doors with their fingers .
4 - Musical show
Singing is an activity that even adults dig in the shower because the acoustics in the shower box is pretty cool for that. "My daughter Marina, 3 years, sings and does choreography for several songs . The bathroom only ends when the show ends, "says Marcela Santos , 36, a systems analyst .
To shorten the shower running time, limit the play time to one or two songs, and incorporates elements of the bath in the "performance" .
5 - Fun Products
Bath items in fun and cheerful shapes and packaging are perfect to stimulate the little ones to go to the shower. The packaging of the shampoo and conditioner can be used for play even when no products are inside. So choose fondly products for bathing your child and make the habit a lot of fun !
