Does your child throw a tantrum every time they have to take a bath? Do you find yourself dreading bath time because you know it’s going to an exhausting battle? Well, look no further than this VIRAL TikTok bath bomb hack to get even the most stubborn kids to love bath time!

Bath bombs are all the rage today and there’s no question why – they make bath time fun! You don’t have to be a kid to enjoy a bath bomb, either. Adults love them too, except they don’t throw tantrums when it’s time for a bath (hopefully). 

Sometimes, our children want to be as stubborn as an ox and make our jobs harder, but that doesn’t mean that we have to give up! All this means is that we have to be more creative. We have to show them that bath time is supposed to be fun and this TikTok hack is the perfect way to do just that!

Something as simple as adding bath bombs to your child’s bath might not seem like a big deal. However, to your child it means them getting to choose how they want their bath experience to be. This hack is a great way for them to participate in bath time and make it more fun for them, without having to fight them on it!

All you need is a glass votive or container and whatever bath bombs you choose! You just put the bath bombs in the glass container and let your child pick which one THEY want to use for their bath! You can give them a fun experience with little to no effort, and they’ll absolutely love it!

Some bombin’ Q&A:

What if I don’t have a glass container?

You can use any kind of container you want! If you have a clear plastic container, a basket, or a metal bucket, these could work! It’s totally up to you and what you already have in your house if you don’t want to buy a glass container.

What kind of bath bombs do you prefer for this TikTok Bath Bomb Hack?

I personally prefer using bath bombs that have stuff inside; I think it makes it more fun for your kids! I also love a good sparkly bath bomb because it makes the water look so pretty!

How long do the bath bombs soak before your child gets in?

You don’t necessarily have to wait for the bath bomb to dissolve for your child to get in. If you want to see the full effect of the color, I suggest waiting until the bomb is fully dissolved. However, sometimes it’s fun to have your child sit in the tub and watch as the bomb dissolves!

Does this TikTok Bath Bomb Hack actually make bath time better?

Yes, it does! I’ve seen so many comments saying they did this for their child, and they loved it! It’s all about letting your child choose what activities would be fun for THEM. It makes all the difference when trying to get them to do something they don’t want to do.
