On My Way to the Bath

Reach for this book when the nightly transition to the bathtub feels like a tug of war and you need to infuse the routine with a sense of play rather than power struggles. It is a lighthearted look at Livi, a high energy girl who uses her vivid imagination to delay the inevitable dip in the tub. By transforming her hallway into a jungle and her stairs into a mountain range, Livi shows parents how a child's resistance is often just a byproduct of their creative spirit. This story is ideal for preschoolers and early elementary children who are asserting their independence. It validates a child's desire to keep playing while gently modeling that routines eventually do happen. Parents will appreciate the relatable humor and the way the story reframes a stressful daily chore as an opportunity for connection and shared laughter.
