A Happier and Easier Bath Time Routine via Laundry Basket

When my son outgrew his baby bath tub, bath time had become a nightmare. He would try to get up and walk to his toys that would float away, or crawl and slip... it was frustrating for mommy and baby.

My mom had suggested something we had as kids. A safety seat for the bath. The seats are slip proof and keep your baby in the seat. There a few things I had doubts on...

1. My son does not like to feel confined (excluding the high chair because, well... food)
2. Where, oh where, am I going to store this thing? ANOTHER THING.
3. And why does this THING cost an average of $50?! Cheapest one I could find (not used, ew) was $30 on eBay.

But let's all take a second to thank Pinterest for being in our lives, because THIS is awesome!

Just use a laundry basket! He was completely content, all of his toys were in reach and he didn't even try to escape! Bath time just got a little easier.

What do you do for an easier, happier bath time?
