Routine is key and the transition back to school can be a big disruption to the daily rhythm. Exhausted kiddos, hectic evenings and afternoons…sound familiar? We’ve always found that bath time is the perfect reset when moods and “tudes” are going downhill. So, carve out some time for a bath as part of your routine and make it an event. Grab the Bubbles & Joy box, put on tunes (we’d recommend our free Bubbles & Joy Jams playlists on Spotify) and let the little ones unwind. Need a little inspo? we’ve got you covered with everything you need to make bath time and bedtime smoother!
Anyone else hit with a round of back to school germs? 🙋🏼♀️Our go-to advice when caring for a sick kid is - splish-splash, give them a bath!A warm bath can provide some temporary relief from aches and pains. The warmth from the bath can also help soothe lungs, and the steam will moisturize throat and nasal passages that have been dried out from sickness to help clear congestion.A lukewarm bath can help bring down a fever for your little one and make them more comfortable.Plus, baths are a great distraction from the blues that come from feeling under the weather.
Summer adventures and travel mean you sometimes have to get creative with bath time. Don’t fret when a bath tub isn’t easily accessible or plans get you out of your routine and comfort zone - embrace it and make it fun. ✨Fill up a bucket, sink, kiddie pool, etc. and roll with it. Bring along the bath toys and bubbles for some familiar fun. So go ahead and get splashing!

I’ve had a few friends ask how we store our Bubbles & Joy subscription boxes so here are some helpful tips!✨We keep 1-2 themed boxes out at a time. After bath, we store them in the mesh hanging bath organizer to completely dry over night before putting them away. Once everything is completely dry✨glopals go in a small acrylic storage box (we use them during every bath so I just did one bin for those)✨bath bombs and droplets get stacked✨bubble whoosh is stored upright and easy to see✨bubbles/body wash are also easy to see and pick a color for bath time!✨in the plastic bins I store 2-3 boxes by theme so all we have to do is add water then it’s...
Bath time provides a great opportunity to reconnect with your little(s) and spend quality time together. So don't sweat the mess - water is easy enough to clean up. This can be tough to let go sometimes, but this is our reminder to you today that it's more important to just be present, have fun, and laugh!
Get in there, smile, and splash - children feed off of your energy! You're doing great!
