True confessions: I don’t bathe my kids enough. They aren’t like smelly or anything, but occasionally go for a few days with marker tattoos. Bath time just always seems like a lot of work and then there is the mess of all the water and, well frankly it is just easier to shove them in bed dirty.
Here is the other thing I hate about bath time. The constant argument over MY bath stuff. My bath stuff that I use in those precious few minutes I get everyday in which I close the curtain, turn on the hot (very hot) water, and use some pretty smelling body wash to escape to a tropical island. “But mommy, I’m not a baby. This stuff is for babies!! I wanna use your stuff!!”
Enter Suave Kids. It says kids, not baby so the girls are game. And I get to protect my stuff. They get to feel like mommy. We all win. I personally like the Free and Gentle variety for the baby so I don’t have to worry about anything weird being in it. But they also have Berry and Strawberry wash. Which the girls love cause they feel like they have something special. And like the baby wash we are used to they are also tear free so I don’t have to be nervous when they are washing. Because I love nothing more than them doing bath time all by themselves.
Suave Kids is currently running their Watch Them Grow Sweepstakes where you can win prizes every week. And the grand prize of a family trip to Orlando. AND, if I’m the blogger that drives the most traffic to the sweepstakes I will win a year’s supply of Suave Kids® products and a $100 gift card to Build-A-Bear Workshop – AND I get to choose 10 of my readers who will each win the same fantastic prize! I am assuming you want to be the most popular mom/aunt/friend ever right? So please head over and enter. And enter often (thru Feb. 22nd). And tell your friends to enter.
If I win, I will pick the winners from the comments. So every time you click on the above link, leave one. You can enter once a day. You get an extra one from participating in Things I Love Thursday so leave an extra comment. You get one more for telling someone about this contest somehow. You can use email, Facebook, Twitter, skywriting, strategically placed tattoos, whatever. If you do that, you can leave one extra comment. You just have to enter through the above links for me to get credit. Make sense? Ok, go enter.
*I was provided with samples of Suave Kids products by Mom Select to facilitate my review. All opinions are mine.
Now, what do you love dear readers? Enquiring minds want to know. Post about it and link up below. Get your Things I Love Thursday guidelines before you start if you are a newbie. Otherwise join in!!

I haven’t tried the Suave Kids body wash, but I love their shampoo & detangling spray! I still have to use Johnson’s Bedtime Bath on the baby, because…well, because I love how it smells. (As Antique Mommy said, that stuff is like catnip for Mommies!)

I kid you not, my 2 1/2 yo dumped nearly a whole bottle of Suave Kids Wash in the tub today. And, no, that wasn’t the first time. When will I learn?!

I haven’t tried Suave body wash for kids yet. I seem to have a lifetime supply of J&J head to toe from baby showers and gifts when our guy was a baby. He’s three now! I did get a nice little coupon over on the Sauve site, so maybe it is in our future!

I tend to be time and energy challenged when it comes to bath time. Sometimes when I skip a night, I do a wet wipe rub to help ease the guilt. I’m so glad to see in writing, that it isnt just me! I do like Suave for my older two. Nice scents for the kids, and nice price for the mommy!

Now that The Princess showers herself, it’s hard to get her OUT of the shower. She does little skits in there I think. She too uses Suave products. She loves the way they smell. I’m off to enter in the contest.

we totally love Suave and call it “SWAVE” in our house to make it fancier. I think that might officially make it more redneck, but it IS funnier.
So much fun! I’m gonna get my entries on!
