It depends what type of knobs you have in your bath tub. Go to a hardware store and they can give you some solutions to the problem. It's best to have a lock on your bathroom door (keep a spare key outside of the bathroom in case of accidents) as small children should never be around bathrooms in the first place. I know it's tough, but if you have one of those new deep tubs they put into bathrooms your child could well fall in and hurt themselves quite badly. I say the lock on the bathroom door is the best way to go if possible. Children climb and it's truly amazing (as I am sure you know) that they can climb like monkeys, so they could even climb on something and get to the sink and turn on the hot water. You can't put a pad lock on all the knobs in the bathroom.

AnswerI went overboard baby-proofing everything, but the only item that truly worked for all problems was the door knob covers that spin around the door knob (or faucet knob) if you have small toddler or preschooler hands. Even if the youngsters figure out they have to squeeze two spots of that cover at the same time, they can physically simply not do it. Maybe that works for you.

A cheap fix is..........A hook and eye closure that is at the 5 foot level on the door to the bathroom, too far for the kid to reach, but easy for the adults to open. Keeps them out unless a adult is there to supervise them.

AnswerI found inflatable tub knob covers that suction cup to the wall. They work very nice and about $4.99. Here is what they look like, I only found them online. http:/www.safensoundkids.comtubknob1.jpg (you can get em from the same site the picture is on.) I also found the door knob covers helpful for into the bathroom.

Answer.

Take an old stadium cup that you don't care about (ie not your husband's Pink Floyd Concert one) and cut a hole in the bottom. Take the knob off the faucet, place the cup over the knob stem and then replace the knob. You then just squeeze the cup to turn on or turn the knob. I have to reach into the cup to press the knob in to shut the water off.

How do you get your toddler to take a bath?

Making bathtime fun is the best way to encourage a toddler to take a bath. Buy some bath toys - a rubby ducky, a boat, some foam letters - to entice him or her in. Bubbles are also a good trick. Toddlers also love to do what big kids do. So explain that other big kids also take baths will encourage them.


Can you put a toddler in a lukewarm bath to drop their temperature?

Yes, you can put a toddler in a lukewarm bath to help bring their temperature down. You do not want to put them in a cool or cold bath though, as they may go into shock. Also, you should give them Tylenol and Motrin (infants or childrens) together. You can give them a full dose together. That's what the ER told me when my eight month old son had a temp of 104.2. Good luck.
