Most babies love bath time. When my son was a baby, bath time always brought about lots of giggles. He loved the warm water and had so much fun taking a bubble bath, playing with his bath toys, and splashing until I was soaking wet too. As much fun as bath time was, it was so much more. Bath time was a great bonding experience for us, and a chance for my baby to learn and explore the senses.
I had so much fun going through old pictures to find this one of my son in the tub. Such great bath time memories! Thanks to JOHNSON’S® and The Motherhood for working with me on this sponsored post about making bath time with baby so much more.
Bath time is such a wonderful opportunity to connect with baby. Giving our baby a bath does so much more than keeping baby clean. It’s a chance to bond with our babies while facilitating their development. Did you know that adding bubbles to your baby’s bath can help develop hand-eye coordination? It helps them discover that objects exist even when they can’t be seen, and stimulates the senses through touch and smell. Not to mention the fact that bubbles add a whole lot of fun to bath time.
Does your baby love to splash? Splash away, baby! Because it’s not only just fun… it actually teaches baby cause and effect.
Introducing bath toys is a great way to turn bath time into a mutli-sensorial playground and learning experience! When my baby boy got older, I introduced colorful foam letters to bath time. That fun time in the tub with letters was instrumental in helping him learn his ABC’s and colors.

Great info!
Bath time does so much in our house. It makes sure our kids STAY asleep! lol
Never thought about playing music during bath time, but we work on our letters with the foam letters and now sight words for my daughter! Didn’t even think much about it, but I guess I’m doing something good!
Babies and Johnsons just go together/ Great products.
My kids love bath! My 9 year old even took a bath the other day!

I love bath time! Actually I don’t know who loves it more, my daughter or myself! I really do like that time I get with each of my kids giggling while sitting on the bathroom floor with them.

I always loved bath time with my babies, it is such a great time to bond! I miss having little ones and I always used J&J products with my babies!
My kids are still pretty young, but I do enjoy watching them splash and play in a big ole’ bubble bath!
My kids used to love bath times when they were little. they are 13 and 17 now. They don’t even let me see then naked now. Lol
The best baby photos are always in a tub! My parents took plenty when I was younger too!
Our son is about to turn 5 and bath time is still fun for us. He’s not distracted by games or TV. He loves the warm water. We can just chat about his day and relax while he washes himself.
My kids still love bathtime. It’s the perfect time to play and unwind from the day.
bathtime is fun time! Ha . We actaully don’t have a bathtub in the place we live in but we used too, kids always enjoyed that time
My kiddos still love bathtime. Sometimes it’s hard to get them in, but soon they’re crying when they have to get out.
My DIL is really great about utilizing bathtime for learning time. She makes lessons for the tub that are fun, and while that makes me laugh, I do fully support the idea. Baby loves it, and she’s smart as a whip too… in part I’m sure because her mom takes such considerations to enhance her playtime by making it sneaky learn time too. 🙂
My girls always loved bath time. Johnson’s was a favorite of ours. We would always use the calming bedtime body wash because it smelled sooo good!
I should stop telling them to stop splashing! BAD MOMMA!!!! I never thought about it as a learning experience!
We always do a bath before bed. It gives the kids time to unwind and get relaxed for bed.
Bath time with our babies was one of our favorite times. It was time to relax, time to learn, and I loved the cuddle time after.
I have always loved bath time as have my kids!
Bath time is definitely my favorite time. What a sweet time to unwind and connect with the babies.
I agree that bath time is an important time with your child. My boys have always enjoyed this time when they were younger.
Bath time was always my favorite time of the day when the kids were little. It was always fun watching them play with the bubbles.
My favorite baths were done in the sink. I have so many fun memories with my girls. They both freaked out on me during their first bath. I was a nervous wreck. We finally got the hang of it though.
My boys love bath time. Johnson & Johnson for the win at our house. 🙂
My kids love the bath. The treat for them is getting to use our tub and turn on the jets. They go crazy!
Yes, most babies love bath time & it is always fun for the mommy as well. I have enjoyed every moment of it with both my girls & the memories are absolutely fun & amazing.
Too cute~ Who knew there was some serious science to bath time and development?
Johnson’s was best for giving baths to my kids. It was drying to their skin.
I mean it wasn’t drying to their skin.
My oldest daughter hated bathroom time but my younger two loved it.
Bathtime with my kids can be fun, but is usually just a “get them in and out as fast as possible” kind of deal without soaking the floor. The floor usually ends up soaked 🙂
