Baths Are For Everyone

There is nothing more invigorating than a long hot bath. It soothes the soul, comforts the body, and even feels the mind with memories of baths long ago. No home should be without a large bathtub because a good bath is great for all ages.

Babies thrill at the chance to splash around, play with toys, and even blow bubbles or float. It is extremely important to NEVER leave a child alone in the bath. A fun experience can easily become dangerous if the child slips on the slick surface of the tub. Baby baths should be a joyful experience, but they should also be moderated by an adult.

Most children also love to take baths - especially when there are bubbles involved. A warm bath can calm the most excited child, making it easier for him to fall asleep at night. A cool, afternoon bath can be a great activity for smaller children. Mom will have a chance to sit still for a while, while the children blow bubbles, finger paint (with soap paints), or enjoy other water time activities.

Most adults (who have ever experienced the right bath experience) usually prefer baths over showers, at least when the muscles are sore or the day was extra long. Some soothing music, a scented candle, and some bath salts take the experience of baths to a level beyond enjoyable. Many an exhausted adult has found themselves laying in a cool bath after falling asleep during just such a situation.

Baths are for everyone - for the baby, the kids, and the adults. Baths are soothing, fun, relaxing, and entertaining all at the same time. As the tubs continue to get bigger and the features on the tubs continues to grow as well, baths are likely to continue to be an important part of every day living.
