Poppet's Grandparents bought her a paddling pool for Christmas and to be honest she has always been a bit shy about going in.
She will sit on the outside of the pool and play with her water toys within, but actually getting in herself was another story...
What we discovered over time was that adding warm water and bubble bath made it far more appealing to her taste! Now we can barely get her out...
Poppet just loves to be in the bath, so an outdoor one in the garden with Daddy made it even more special.
This was such a lovely way to spend a summer Sunday evening together, we might have to make this a Sunday night ritual for the remainder of these balmy evenings.
Hope you had a lovely weekend.

Soooo adorable! I just realized that we could probably bathe our daughter much easier in a kiddie pool! Our apartment only has a huge tub with high sides and a sink that is much too small for her now. Thanks for the idea!
ReplyDeleteWe've often used our clamshell as an outside bath in summer, and the kids love it (its also great for watering the lawn without having to bucket water downstairs). Hadn't thought of adding bubble bath as well though - the boys will think its fantastic.
