Since taking the plunge in the swimming pool Alex has loved bathtimes. Unfortunately for him Mummy is usually all business with baths and it's a quick splash and a wash and then he's yanked out and toweled and dressed before he can say rubber ducky. Now before you think I'm cruel and neglectful, I'll explain it's mostly because until very recently he's been unable to sit very well in a slippery baby bath so any play is limited to anything I can do intermittently with one hand whilst bending over a bathtub and also trying to wash him, and I can tell you it does not extend far beyond "Ooh! Look at the ducky swimming. Splash splash!" before it's time to get out. And the bath seat we've got is one where he has to lie back so all I can do is show him the toys from above, he can't sit up safely to see them in the water or play with them and let's face it, that's just teasing the poor kid.
Now that he's 6 months old and sitting up better (and has a nice collection of bath toys we never make enough use of) we now have a very cool new big boy bath seat that has changed his life. Check this out.
I think he thought it very thoughtful of me to get him a bath seat that had something to chew on built into it
Not that it matters, after all any toy at all does the job and he's got plenty to choose from as you can see
At last, lots of bathtime fun. Yea!
