One of the least favorite things of children seems to be bath time. They don’t want to be stuck in a tub when they could be out playing with their friends or watching a favorite television show.

 However,Thrill Your Child with a Kid Friendly Bathroom Articles being dirty isn’t a viable option, either. Therefore, it might be easier to do some bathroom remodeling to help your child get in the mood for bathing.

 

To start with, look at your bathroom like your child would. Try to spot what they don’t like and how you can fix that. Areas that aren’t easily accessible to kids can be a detriment to them wanting to be around them. Also, if the colors are dull and boring, kids just aren’t going to be receptive. If at all possible, let your kids have their own bathroom and re-decorate it.

 

Choose a theme that fits in with your child’s interests when you start to re-decorate the bathroom. You can create a wall mural with cartoon characters or certain animals. Then choose accessories around that particular theme. These can include themes of an aquarium, jungle safari, or a favorite fairytale. Paint the walls or use wallpaper that fit in with the chosen theme, and add accessories that will match.

 

Next, work on creating an environment that’s kid friendly. Use fixtures that can grow as your child grows. For instance, if you have a shower and tub combined system, kids can learn how to bathe at any age. To begin with, put up a shower curtain that fits with the rest of the theme. Later, you can change that into a hard glass door. In this way, the design can be safe as well as stylish.

 

For a bathroom with limited space, or if you cannot dedicate one bathroom totally to your child, there are compromises that can be made to make everyone happy. Begin by decorating to suit your personal tastes. Then add some things that your child will enjoy.

 

Put in plenty of safe toys to play with while bathing as well as kid friendly soap and shampoo. Include their own personal towels with favorite characters as well as slip resistant mats and rugs. You can make bath time a lot happier for your child.
