How to Make Bath Time More Fun

I don't know about your little ones but my little boys hated taking baths when they were toddlers. With this simple recipe you can make bath time more enjoyable for everyone!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Small bottle
• Food coloring
• Clear liquid soap/shampoo

1. Find a plastic bottle (an empty hand sanitizer or travel size lotion bottle will work well).

2. Fill the bottle with a light colored liquid soap (soft soap), shampoo or body wash.

3. Add several drops of food coloring (whatever color you'd like) to the bottle of soap and shake well to mix. You want to make sure to add enough food coloring (this amount will vary depending on the size of your bottle). The soap and coloring mixture should be very rich in color in order for this to work.

4. When filling the tub at bath time squeeze a bit of the soap into the water to create colorful water. Kids LOVE the idea of having blue, red, green, yellow or even purple bath water! Don't worry about staining your child's skin. The soap keeps the food coloring from being absorbed.

Tips & Warnings

• You can purchase bath tints at almost any local drug store but this is a fun, FREE way to achieve the same results.
