My soon to be 4 yr old has a bath nearly every night (just b/c he seems to like to keep the routine). I sometimes put baby oil in the tub just to keep his skin from becoming too dry. I also use more lotion on his during the winter before his pj's. I would say 5-6 nights out of the week he gets a bath.

About 5 times a week. Generally skip it only if we are out late.

Every other day generally. He loves the bath, but doesn't like getting his hair washed. Sometimes on weekends he will stay in the bath for over an hour - a great break for me!

Daily, sometimes skipping a day. He's got eczema, and even though it sounds counterintuitive, the doc said to bathe daily and follow with Aquaphor. That's what keeps his skin healthy, so that's what we do.

Every other day. Sometimes we will go two days. We wash her hair a couple times a week. She is rarely outside so doesn't get as dirty.

Generally every night, we may skip a weekend night here and there. Honestly the bath is mostly playtime, but she likes it so we stick to the routine.

Every other day. Hair washed 2X per week (very fine, flyaway hair that gets dry easily).

Depends on level of activity, indoor vs. outdoor play, etc.. Honestly, sometimes we go 3 days without a bath. His skin does get dry and itchy like mine, so I don't feel too bad about it.

do you change their underwear before they go to bed or after they wake up in the morning for days you skip the bath?

3x a week, mostly to address of butt hygiene. He only spends 3 minutes in the tub bc he has dry skin.
