Our Review
This charming board book brings the whimsical world of Boynton's hippos to the familiar ritual of bath time, transforming an everyday routine into a joyful celebration. Through her signature rhythmic text and expressive animal characters, the author captures the playful energy of splashing, washing, and drying off. The sturdy pages and rounded corners make this an ideal choice for small hands to explore independently, while the simple, repetitive phrases encourage early language development. Parents will appreciate how this bathing book naturally incorporates early learning concepts like body parts and sequencing.
What sets this apart is how effectively it addresses common toddler resistance to washing up by framing the experience as pure fun rather than a chore. The cheerful illustrations of hippos enjoying their tub time create positive associations with hygiene routines, making it particularly valuable for families struggling with bath time battles. This engaging story about getting clean manages to be both entertaining and practical, leaving little ones excited for their next splash-filled adventure.
