Bath Time Blues

Danae

My daughter is 2 and we still struggle with bath time. Most of the time she’s ok with playing and splashing around in the water and with a scrub down, but on the days we need to wash her hair she just screams bloody murder the entire time. It’s so traumatic for all of us and I just don’t know what to do. I keep a dry towel handy to wipe any water off of her face immediately, we’ve tried the little crowns to keep the water off her face, but she just rips it off and screams more. I’ve tried wrapping her like a burrito to wash her hair in the sink, but nothing seems to work. We have toys and bubble makers to play with too.

Anyone else have or had a similar experience or have any other thoughts or suggestions? I just want bath time to be fun for her. Breaks my heart to hear her scream the way she does. 😩
