My happy 20mth old dd used to love the bath and happily play for 15 or so mins with her toys and splash about. Sunday night my dh has his turn for bath duties and gives her a particularly traumatic hair washing - which she hates at the best of times (and usually only occurs once every 2-3 weeks).
She now goes totally hysterical/into meltdown at going back in the bath even though there isn't shampoo or hairwashing involved.
What should I do? Keep trying to entice her back in with toys etc, I'm quite happy to get in myself and play a game with her...but i don't want her traumatised any further.
Thanks in advance
