Red, Blue, or Yellow?

Who knew plain clear bath water could be so boring?! My mom and sis introduced me to this little treat, and ever since there has been no turning back. Every night we ask Zach what color he wants for his bath.
Crayola® Color Bath Dropz

Tonight he wanted blue. The colors can also be mixed together. He loves it. I will admit yellow bath water is a little disturbing for obvious reasons. ; )
Fun! I love getting you all wet, Mommy!
Zach will probably never have a clear bath again because Jason and I will be buying these crazy things until he is old enough to take a shower. Now why didn't I think of this?


He hath made His wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.

Psalm 111:4

You're such a fun mom. Ever since I realized the full beauty of the "shower head on the hose attachment," I have been one baby bathing machine - usually 3 minutes or less. My three littlest might not even know the tub was made to HOLD water - no really, it's not that bad...but pretty close ;) Keep being fun!

My girls LOVED those little color tablets for years! It sure makes bath time a lot more fun for them.

Hillary said...

That's such a cute idea! I didn't know such a product existed...

Jill said...

Brilliant!

Bourg Family said...

I do love those.

Kelley said...

Genius! I will be sending those in a care package for my Goddaughter who is scared of the bath. I think she may be less scared if she has a pink, Barbie bath! (Congratulations on your wonderful blessing. I have read your blog and prayed for you for months but never commented. Hang in there!)

My daughter loves colored baths too! And it's a good thing she'll settle for them because of chronic yeast infections, bubbles are a no-no. You can use liquid food coloring and it works just a great! And the neon colors are a fun twist on the regular colors. It's probably a bit cheaper too since the food coloring lasts for a while! It is so fun to see how kids love such small things!

Mel said...

Great idea will try these as well :)

oliviasmommy07 said...

We use these too!! I love making purple with blue and red! The yellow is very disturbing, I have to agree with you! Z is soo very cute and is getting so big!!!

Laura said...

How cool is that?! Thanks for sharing!

Kimberly said...

I have some but have never used them! Tell mee...do they leave a ring around the tub that is hard to get off??? Don't like cleaning tubs any more than I have to!
ps- Hugs and congrats for your big announcement! We are praying hard in Australia!

Kelly said...

Yhey've come out with so many fun things since my boys were little. And you're so right, why didn't we think of that?

Unknown said...

such cute pics! I love the last one of the blue water and the rubber duckies floating in the back!
Those Crayloa color tablets are so fun! You know they make crayons, too, right? For the bathtub.. and they wash right off... they're really fun, too! :)

Havent had a chance to tell you yet, but CONGRATULATIONS on the baby news! That is so wonderful... such a blessing...and perfect timing. Praying for you guys as you open your hearts and prepare for baby number 3! Blessed be HIS name---The God of restoration...

Andrea said...

I am going to have to get some of that! I didn't know that even existed!!(Is that bad)??

Danielle said...

My kids love these too! It's also nice for our 4 year old b/c he now knows what colors mix together to make otehr colors...his favorite though it adding all the colors at the same time. He calls it a mud bath...whatever gets em' clean:)There other favorite thing are the crayons that they can draw on the tub with. Except our little guy thinks he can now draw on anything:(

Candy Johnson said...

Okay, so if he loves these dye tablets, you have to order the crayon soap from Avon! I'll be buying colored soap for years to come :)

Lauren said...

He's so precious!!! :)

Thomas and Jamie said...

How fun! I could NOT love bath pictures more!

April said...

We LOVE these at our house! Mixing them is their favorite Plain ol' shaving cream makes for a ton of fun too. And the little floating art desks from Crayola with the bath crayons has been something my 3 boys have thoroughly enjoyed. Bath time is fun time around here as well. :) Congratulations on your sweet blessing!

Jennifer said...

Brody loves those bath dropz! My mom put them in his stocking at their house on Christmas and we have been using them daily since then.

We mix the colors sometimes to make new colors. We do one red and one yellow for orange and one yellow and one blue for green. It gives a little varitey!:)

Brittany said...

How fun! I need to get Rhett some of that! We need to really work on colors with him, everything is yellow in his world!

prashant said...

no really, it's not that bad...but pretty close ;) Keep being fun!

Beth Priest said...

Misti said...

How cool is that? I didn't know there was such a thing. My son would love it. Can you just get them at WalMart?

And, congratulations on your pregnancy. I'm so happy for you guys.

Heather said...

Zach looks so much like you in that first picture!! Love it!

Rebekah said...

How cute is Zach?!?! The colored water is so fun!

Superchikk said...

I already have a hard time getting Caedmon out of the bath, especially since he got a water basketball game for Christmas. I don't know if I could stand any more fun in there!

julie & joe said...

I love bath fizzies. I use them at work when I take the water table to day care programs. The kids really like to watch it color the water and then play in it.

We don't use the bath at home.....Aaron takes a shower, has since he was 2.

Lindsay said...

Oh how fun I looked at these at the store just a few days ago and wondered if they stained? Good to know they are fine! I was also looking at bath crayons and paint bc Averee loves to color! Have you tried those?
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!

Ani said...

Our 4 year old LOVES those little color tablets... For some reason he always chooses GREEN - so we run out of blue and yellow first :)

Anonymous said...

Fun! Have you tried the bath foam which basically looks like shaving cream? My little girl who is 3 loves it!

Unknown said...

OH THOSE THINGS ARE AWESOME!!! Where do you get them?

Diana Lesjak said...

Wow ... never heard of these!! Can't wait to find some here!

Erin said...

What a great idea . . I am going to look into those! I bet that makes bath time a lot of fun!

Allyson said...

That does look like fun! Laughing about the yellow water. Unfortunately, I still see that sometimes....and we don't have the tablets! My kids loved bath crayons. I don't remember where we got them. Probably Target. Now it's about getting them in and out as quickly as possible! Enjoy the long, playful baths! Sweet times!

Blessings,
Allyson
