lots of bubbles
Plenty of bath toys, not to mention bubble bath.
Bath crayons are her fave
I like making different hair styles with shampoo and conditioner
I don't have kids myself, but I used to take care of my niece and nephew for many years. I think that rubber duckies and colored soap crayons would make bathtime fun!
I use the yellow rubber ducky's and sometimes use the colander to pretend is a water fall.
I have one of those large cups from the fair (lemonade) my son loves to take it and fill it and dump it. I also have Gymboree bubbles that we blow int he tub as well.
My son is old enough to take care of himself, but when he was little, he had lots of bath toys and plastic cups. He always seemed to play with the cups the most!
This is easy and cliche, but my son loves to sing in the tub more than any other time because he loves how his voice echoes. We got him a tub drum (could easily make on with an old container too) and he bangs on that thing and sings at the top of his lungs. That's how we (drum) roll at bathtime. :-)
water paints!
I have grandchildren now, but when my kids were small, I use to buy the bubble containers and let them play outside. When the containers was empty I would fill them up with their favorite bubble bath and they would continue to blow bubbles and empty the rest into their bath. Another favorite was during the winter months, after their baths, I would take their robes and put in the dryer so that they would be toasty and warm.
We make bath time fun with bubbles, making music and letting imaginations go wild!
My girls love to have their bath time barbies with them. They also enjoy splashing and pretending they are at the splash pad. We also let them play with lots of bubbles.
