Slipping in a bath or shower is not funny for anyone, no matter how slight and uneventful it may be. But worse, it can be dangerous if you or someone in your family actually slips and falls, because there are so many hard edges to fall on in a bathroom that severe physical damage can result.
A Preventable Danger
Slipping in the tub is a danger that is very preventable for adults and children alike. This is especially so when a suitable slip-resistant mat or sticker is applied to the slippery surface of the tub or shower.
When you consider how boisterous children can get when playing in the bath, is it any wonder that parents fret and worry over them having a nasty accident. At least with non-slip matting in place, some of that worry can be alleviated.
Making Bath Time Fun for Kids
In the case of younger children, the bath can be seen as a fun place to be when there are colorful images around the place. And what better way to add to the fun than with great bath decals!
You can choose from many of your children's favorite cartoon characters, cartoon scenes, movie characters, super heroes and TV favorites. In fact just about anything you can think of that your child will delight in seeing stuck to the floor of the bathtub is probably available as a decal.
Bright colors and happy designs are well known to stimulate very young children in a positive way. So not only are you helping to protect them from harm by placing a great slip resistant mat in your bathtub, you are also increasing their happy experience associated with bath times.
Choosing and Buying Nonslip Bathmats
Of course, the choice of these items is vast these days with a number of manufacturers producing all kinds of styles, color coordinates and themed mats, making it a tough choice to get what you really want. Well, why not enlist the help of the kids themselves?
That's right, your children will have a pretty good idea of what they'd like to see at bathtime. So why not simply get them to sit down with you online and choose what they want from the various collections that are on display?
You'll be glad you did when there are no arguments over what mat to put in the bath next time!
