Hating bath time

My DS us 13 mo and up until a month ago he loved bath time. We'd say splashy splashy time and he'd toddle over to the bath. Now he screams and cries and tries to climb out of the tub. We go to a park that has a water bit and he loves to play in the water.
I've tried an earlier bath time thinking he was tired. Ive tried colder water and he still hates it. Ive tried getting in the bath with him as well. Any ideas on what else to try? Thanks!

my DC3 was just like this (having loved water before)all it took was a day when we went and bought bathtime baby (cheap from toystore with own bath and shower attachment) we played with baby in the day, then took baby into the bath (in the toy bath LOL) DC played with baby, and washed her, I played with baby and washed her, we both washed DC3....solved

I didn't believe how many months of screaming and pain we had put up with when all it needed was this distract-or!!! Hope you find that it is so simple too!!
