How often do you bath/shower the kids?

[Theoldwoman]

Hi, just curious what others do and see if I am being 'normal' after several discussions with friends and family.

Are the adults in the household the same?

I shower every morning and bath the kids most nights. At least 5 out of 7 nights depending on how messy the kids got during the day.

A handful of times a week. But as ds is older (9), it’s every time he’s done exercise which is pushing towards most days.

Mine are 5 & 7, we all shower every morning, I don't think it's absolutely necessary but it's part of our routine and keeps them fresh!

I shower daily but dc are every 5-6 days. They're 9 and 6. Too often makes the oldests eczema worse. When they were younger it was weekly unless filthy. Showering after swimming can replace their bath too, as chlorine seems to aggravate the eczema.

DD (6) bathes twice a week, I bathe about 5 times a week (every other day as a default, but always after exercise).

I expect DD will need to bathe more once she hits puberty, but I'm hoping for at least a couple of years before that's the case.

Me and DH shower in the morning, the kids have a bath before bed.
Everyone has a good wash every day but not everyone is trying to get in the bathroom in the morning.
I think all kids should have a bath or shower every day.

My DC are 7 and 9 and they have a bath almost every evening before bed (only miss it if we're out late or something). I have a shower every morning, and often hop in their bath too. Probably more bathing than is strictly necessary, but it's part of their routine and showering / bathing makes me feel nicer.

Daily
Always have done no matter where we are

I shower every morning. Boys 3 years & 6 months bath every night.

It used to be everyday because it had just become part of their bedtime routine, but now it’s more like every other day, and a good scrub of their hair a few times a week. They are 2 & 3.

I shower every other day and the kids get bathed every other day too. obviously more often if they need it.

I have a shower most mornings unless we are running obscenely late.
Then every other day I have a nice, long shower, spend time washing my hair, shaving my legs/underarms etc.

Then if DH is here I’ll have a long soak in the bath in the evening a couple of times a week which is absolute bliss!

Adults every other day and kids about once a week (though they often jump in our showers) We all have eczema and water dries us out.

They bathe together every night.

Adults every day.

Me and the kids every other day unless particularly messy/dirty or I've exercised

DD (nearly 3) baths daily as part of a routine and she loves the bath.

I usually shower or hop in the bath with her on the evening but occasionally also shower in the morning.

Adults every morning. Children (under 10 years old) 6 out of 7 nights. We will skip a Friday night as everyone gets home very late and there’s only (messy and sweaty) sport on Saturday.

Adults shower every other day although if it's my time of the month or during hot weather / if I've done any exercise then I shower every if not twice a day (I know, such a waste of water but my period makes me feel gross)

DSD 7 baths about twice a week - every Sunday and then once during the week.

Dd 15 showers every day washes hair every other
Dd8 bath every night washes hair approx 3 times a week
Ds 10 months has a bath approx 3 times a week. I use johnsons bath cloths morning and night on him. Love them.

Adults every evening, kids most evenings unless we're late out. The babies are done twice a week.

My kids seem to get incredibly dirty every day!

Every other day

Everyday is part of his bedtime routine ! I wash his hair everyother day though

DS is 2 and I bath him every second night unless I feel he needs it on the night in between. I shower every day.

I bath once a day sometimes twice depending on time if month, daughter has a bath before bed.
