Book Review By MamaLuvsBooks:
“Tired Of My Bath” by, Dicy McCullough is a cute story about John Allen who is a little boy that is tired of taking baths. He tells his mom that he doesn’t want to take a bath and instead of making him she gives him the best lesson of all; she tells him to do what he wants and he can deal with consequences. I love that lesson! I need to do that more with my own kids.
He goes without his bath and discovers what happens…….he stinks! You’ll have to read this adorable story to find out what John Allen does!
THINGS I LOVE ABOUT THE BOOK:
1. It is easy to read (my 2nd grader reads it to my 4-year old son)
2. It has a nice rhyme pattern to it
3. It has cute and colorful illustrations
4. You can connect the story to real life situations to educate kids
5. It can help if you have a kid that’s refusing to take baths (show them what will happen)!

Yes, my daughter did not like to take baths at all. Showers seem to go better.
my son likes baths but hates water in his face so wont do showers
Fortunately, my kids have always loved the water, so it’s usually not difficult to get them to take a bath. The only time I have trouble is when they’re doing something fun, and they don’t want to stop!
my 3 kids always loved taking baths;-)
It was super easy for bath time with my son.. converting to taking showers was not so easy!! But now he loves those too (age 7)!! 🙂
My kids have always loved bath time!
my kids always liked taking baths!

My kids love to take baths now, but my daughter used to hate them
When my youngest was little I did yes, she was afraid she would go down the drain! Not kidding, she would cry No mommy no mommy! We laugh now but it was a major issue than! lol (she is now 18)

Oldest is 4 and will only shower. He plays in the shower till he’s forced out. Youngest loves his bath.
Getting her in…no problems; getting her out….major problems.She loved the water. My husband went on a babydoll shopping spree when we had her so we had 3 water babies ready to go. He talked her into giving her baby baths everyday like she was the mommy and it worked. She loved playing with her waterbabies.
{Quanda} My children, when they were smaller, loved bath time. So does my granddaughter.
bath when little nope!
So far no I havent had a problem but I have a hard time getting her out of the bathtub!!
my kids never minded taking a bath. I was very lucky!
Yes… But once they’re in, they love it!
Only sometimes.
My problem had always been getting my son out of the tub, not getting him in it! He loves to take a bath@

Oh, absolutely! My kids both went through a stage where they did not want to take a bath.
Both of my girls gave me problems. I had to buy little treats and small toys and after each bath they got to pick out 1 thing that they wanted. Thank you for the chance to win!:)
