🫧 Tips for low functioning littles and showering: ☁️
╔═ . ☾ . ══════════════════
Hey there little one! I think it might be bath time, don't you?
I know it's not always easy- sometimes the world feels too big and all you want to do is get back in bed, so i've set up a fun list of things that help me and maybe you too <33
☁️﹒Lay your comfiest clothes out in advance! have your fuzzy socks, favorite shirt, cozy pajama pants and towel laid out outside the shower so when you get out you can slip right into them!
🫧﹒Bring along some music or a podcast! sometimes feeling like someone else is there with you can help keep you out of your own head!
☁️﹒Let a stuffie friend tag along! while they cant get in the shower with you, they can hang out by the sink if they'd like too. you can tell them all about your day and what fun things you have planned next!
🫧﹒Mix and match senses and smells, if you have a soap you really like the smell of, you're more likely to want to get cleaned up!
☁️﹒For sensory littles, focus on the sensations of the water, the sound of the pitter patters or the way the bathroom gets all steamy like clouds in the sky.
🫧﹒If you get bored in the shower, bring a bath toy with you! something small like a little rubber friend- they like to get clean too!
☁️﹒Try sitting in the shower over standing, it's more comfortable and can help give you that little feeling if it's easier for you to get cleaned up in headspace
🫧﹒Sometimes having a song to hum along too can really help, i like twinkle twinkle little star!
☁️﹒Get some bath time markers! doodle on the shower wall with water soluble pens, see how many stars or clouds you can get done by the time the shower is up!
🫧﹒If showers are too noisy for you, try a bath instead! use bubbles and sticky letters you can put on the wall!
☁️﹒And most of all, try to enjoy it, i know it's easier said than done, but imagine your washing all the sad away, putting the day behind you and getting ready for cozy time.
You got this little star! and when you're all washed up, clean and dry, that's one more thing off your to do list. be kind to yourself, you deserve it <33

- ✂️ Look up some children’s crafts online to practice using scissors and glue.
- ✂️ Make a collage! You can choose a theme or just make a collage out of things you like. See if anyone you know has old magazines they don’t want, buy magazines from a thrift or second hand store, or print off pictures you like from online. I also use the app shoplook to make collages my phone.
- 🧑🎨 Look up simple ideas for filling a sketchbook or different coloring techniques for coloring books. I’ve seen lots of pretty ideas on youtube!
- 🎨 Learn how to do a new art activity. There are so many out there, and you can find kits for kids at art and craft stores.
- ✍️ Get a “how to draw ____” book and learn some new drawing skills. Choose something you’re interested in, like manga, animals, your favorite cartoon characters, cute doodles, etc.
- 🏡 Draw your family (found family or biological). Label each person or pet with their name.
- ✋ Finger paint! It’s a messy activity, but fun! And it can be a fun sensory experience, if you like the feeling of paint. If you don’t want to get too messy, you can wear disposable gloves.
- 🫖 Make things out of play dough or air dry clay (if you want to keep it long term). Learning how to make a pinch pot, making a clay mask, and making an animal sculpture are a few ideas from my elementary school experience.
- ✏️📏 Learn to draw with perspective, like drawing a road or river going off into the distance.
- Make paint splatter art! I like this one because you can decorate anything with it and it looks cool.
