DS1 is just over 3 and DS2 is 6 months and sitting up on his own now. He is still in the babytub, but we've put it in the big bath, so they're "bathing" together! 
DS1 loves it!
We'll probably wait just a bit longer to get rid of the baby tub.
How old were your LOs when you were able to do baths together?

Maybe around 7 months. They love taking baths together. Lately it has been easier to give LO1 a shower and to do a quick bath with LO2. Of course LO2 has been protesting baths because of it. As soon as he realized that both would be bathing together, he happily got in the tub.

It was really early on, like you said with the baby tub in the tub with her.

@T.H.O.U.: @mrsjyw: what baby run do you guys have that you can fit both in there? G is only a month and I'm still bathing her in a basin in the kitchen sink (easier than bending over the tub). Our baby tub is pretty big and wouldn't leave much room for the toddler in the big tub- and I think our bathtub is pretty big.

@Foodnerd81: summer infant right height bath tub! We used the fisher price blue tub when they were newborns though!

Mine are twins, but we started at 7.5 months when they were sitting really steadily. We didn't have to worry about an older sibling trampling the little one, though, since their the same age!

@mrsjyw: I have never seen that tub before- so smart! I hate bending over into the deep tub! Alas we already have the basic blue one and probably won't buy something new.

DD2 was a newborn and we have continued it since (11 weeks). DH or I sit in the tub with her and bathe her during DD1's bath. We use our jetted tub (jets off while baby is in there) so plenty of room.

We just started at 4 months. The baby sits in her bumbo seat and the older one is very careful.

I didn't do joint baths because DD1 was already showering, but now I do joint showers!

T was 7 months and E was about 2.5. She looooves bathing with him. Washing him, etc. Until he either 1) grabs her toy 2) gets in the way of the water stream.

We started it when DD2 was about 2 months old - we just put the baby tub in the bath with DD1 so they could hang out together.
