My 3yo's 'tan' just washed off in the bath... How do they get so mucky?!

Actually, can't think of anything to add to the thread title!

Having lots of fun!
The amount of dirt is in direct proportion to the excellence of your parenting.

Dirt sticks to sunscreen

[BellaBearisWideAwake]

That is an excellent mantra and I am obviously thebest parent EVER judging by the colour of the bathwater!

[purpleturtle]

Exactly.
And you have actually bathed your child. Unlike me

[Sirzy]

love it Purpleturtle

DS is 18 months and has lots of mucky water after his bath :) there again I end up with nearly as much after a days playing with him :D

[BellaBearisWideAwake]

If it makes you feel better it's his first bathsince Friday evening

[BellaBearisWideAwake]

Wait, I think that answers my thread question...

I was putting dd in the bath one day last week, after a long day outside playing, and when she touched the sides of the bath with her wet hands actual mud rolled down the sides

[BellaBearisWideAwake]

No wait, SATURDAY night. Not as bad as I thought.

[purpleturtle]

Excellent work, Sirzy and Elah11: you too receive parenting awards

(Bella, I think you may indeed have answered your own question!)

[Mummyloveskisses]

LOL.... hooray I got something right, my DS2 hands did the same elah11 :)

I always feel an inner shiney happiness when I look at DD 3.4yrs and DS2 14 months at the end of the day and they are ''tanned'' DS1 (in case your wondering) is 13yrs and as a typical boy has a permanent ''tan'' :O
