Important Parenting Chart: Should You Bathe Your Kid?

Let’s face it: it’s exhausting being a parent. By the end of the day, we barely have the energy to put the kids to bed, let alone BATHE them.

So if you find yourself in this position and are wondering if your kid really needs a bath, look no further than this chart.

As we tell our kids, sharing is caring.
