At what age do you start daily baths? DD is going on 3 and has super sensitive skin. We still do every other day unless the activity of the day requires a bath.

Avery is younger, so I'm no help. I don't necessarily give Avery a bath every day because she is dirty but she usually does get one every day because she is always in the shower with me when I am. I think it still depends on the daily activities and if she needs a bath. I wouldn't give give her a bath nightly for the heck of it if you had just had a pj day at home.

Joseph gets so hot and sweaty aorund here and plays outside most days so he does get a daily bath. It also helps get him wound down for bedtime. We do it after dinner of course so he has no more sticky foods. He's 19 months btw

Aislinn also bathes daily, especially in summer - she's a sweatball! Some nights, though, especially if it's been a rainy day and she hasn't been too active, she just sits in a tub of bubbly water and plays. I wash her hair every other day, unless she's been swimming.

Since we have two kids with sensitive skin, we do baths every other day and showers the non-bath days. My kids are 5 and 6.
