I was too old for that crap! At the time it seemed just fine.</p> <p>Co or coed bathing seems appropriate for as long as the kid (s) need help/supervision during bathtime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065640 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 07:46:45 +0000 wonderstruck 2065640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think 5 or so is around the age I would want them to start having a bit more privacy with that stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065637 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 07:44:17 +0000 Mamaof2 2065637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A few months ago - so 6 and 3.5 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065608 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 07:13:14 +0000 blackbird 2065608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't remember when we stopped so probably about 6 is my guess. I feel like your son could bathe himself but would probably still make a mess so that would make me hesitant. And your 3 year old needs help, so I would wait a bit until he is able to do it solo without big messes. Mine will be 2 years apart, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065590 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 06:43:45 +0000 lamariniere 2065590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine are 3 years apart. I feel like separate baths will happen naturally as the older one learns to shower by himself or wants more independence or privacy in the bathroom. I think he will probably let us know when he's ready. As for the difference between boy and girl parts, DS noticed from birth that DD didn't have the same parts. I don't think this fact is something that needs to be hidden, I mean, I still walk around naked in front of him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065573 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 05:29:58 +0000 TheSwissWifeStyle 2065573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My brother is 15 months older than me, and I think we probably stopped when I was around 4 or 5? That's my best guess, it was a long time ago! Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065533 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 00:50:03 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 2065533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Been wondering this too since N is 4 and J is 2! I'm thinking maybe when she's 5 and J's 3. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065530 Thu, 12 Feb 2015 00:38:28 +0000 glimmersnaps 2065530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am wondering too! My son is 4 and my daughter is 1.5 and they take baths together. One day, he pointed out that her part is different from his, so I was sort of wondering this myself. I would say I'd probably stop when he's around 5-6?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065488 Wed, 11 Feb 2015 23:25:33 +0000 HLK208 2065488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We stopped bathing them together right after B turned 5 and E turned 2. It's so much easier to bathe them together but I just felt like they needed their own separate space and privacy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065482 Wed, 11 Feb 2015 23:20:12 +0000 Mrs. Chocolate 2065482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wondering too since my 2 bathe together </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065481 Wed, 11 Feb 2015 23:19:26 +0000 BoogieBea 2065481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Curious about this too. My kids are the same age and they still currently bathe together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065477 Wed, 11 Feb 2015 23:17:18 +0000 Torchwood 2065477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't remember my little sister and brother (similar age gap as yours, but other way around) ever bathing together. But my family is SO conservative. I've seen pictures of my cousins (who are my age) all bathing together, and they were at least 6 or 7 (the oldest was). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-to-stop-bathing-kids-together#post-2065466 Wed, 11 Feb 2015 23:07:49 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2065466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Charlie is 5 and Olive is 3. We still bathe them together most of the time. Some days it's easier just to do it separately since Olive gets home from school much earlier and sometimes she doesn't nap and needs an early bedtime.</p> <p>I remember bathing with my brother until I was maybe 6 and he was 5. But nudity tends not to be as taboo in Korean culture since back then public bath tubs were the norm (as are Korean bathhouses/saunas to this day).</p> <p>When would you stop? Did you bathe with your opposite gender sibling? </p>
