My six-year-old showers only twice a week, yet other parents seem to give their kids baths every night. I have heard overbathing is not good for skin, especially in the winter.
The American Academy of Pediatrics says it is not necessary to bathe a baby every day. They really are not getting that dirty. By age six, we often suggest you take a look at your child’s lifestyle. When surveying my colleagues, the resounding answer I got was that it takes common sense. If your child is dirty or smells, then it is time for a bath!
