Bathtub Fun for the Kids

I used to have no problem getting my two-year old son, Dylan, to hop in the bathtub after a long, dirty day. But lately he has bristled at the mention of the word bath. I'm not sure why he's adverse to getting clean because when he's finished he always feels great! So I was excited to offer him a pack of Washy Squashy Modeling Soap ($12) as a little enticement. Fortunately he took the bait and begged me for his next bath.

Dylan loves making things with his hands and smooshing, molding and playing with anything that resembles clay. Washy Squashy Modeling Soap is perfect because it's soap that can be molded and modeled when it gets wet. It comes in a rainbow colored 6-pack. But the best part is that it's more than just a toy - it's real soap that really will get the kids clean. Made with pure ingredients it's created by Sandy Maine of Sunfeather Natural Soap Company, which began as a small soap-making company, and has evolved into an all-natural, socially responsible collection of bath and body products including lip balms, lotions, bar soaps, shampoo and men’s items and more.
