A well-planned bath time routine can transform the end of the day into a fun and soothing experience for both kids and parents. From getting clean to winding down for bedtime, here’s how to create a bath time routine that keeps little ones happy, relaxed, and looking forward to every splash.
1. Set the Mood
Creating a calming environment makes bath time something your child will enjoy. Try these tips:
-
Adjust the lighting – Use dim lights or soft nightlights to create a cozy atmosphere.
-
Play soothing or fun music – Gentle lullabies for relaxation or playful tunes for extra fun.
-
Have essentials ready – Lay out towels, pajamas, and lotion to make the transition from bath to bed seamless.
2. Get the Water Just Right
Make sure the bath water is warm but not too hot—around 98-100°F is ideal. Add a few fun elements like:
-
Foamy bubbles to make washing up more exciting.
-
A bath bomb (kid-safe, of course!) for a fun, colorful swirl.
-
Jool Baby’s Dolphin Bath Bubble Maker to fill the tub with bubbles and keep your little one entertained.

Bath time is a great opportunity for learning! Try:

Counting practice – Count bubbles, toys, or splashes together.
-
Sensory exploration – Let them feel the textures of different bath toys and water temperatures.
5. The Cozy Wind-Down
After the fun, wrap up bath time with a comforting routine:

Soft, hooded towels to keep them warm and snuggly.
