We have all been there. Face to face with a bath tub full of poop. It is amazing how quickly it can happen. One minute you are washing tummies and singing about crocodiles, and the next, poop soup.
Before I became a parent, the mere thought of this would have made me hurl. Now, after 3 years in, instead of inducing vomit, I simply go into hyperdrive. Mission: get the poop out before child plays and/or ingests it.
And this is where the bathtub pooper scooper becomes my hero. A fellow mom of 3 young boys gave me this tip, and put a pooper scooper in a gift for us when our second son was born. And now I do not give a shower or baby present without one of these little gems tucked inside.
Simply put, the pooper scooper allows you to scoop the bits of floating poop in the tub, without touching it (yeah!) and transfer it into the toilet, where it can be re-released into the wild. Drain, rinse, and begin again.
These pooper scoopers can be found at dollar stores across the country, or any store that specializes in fish, such as petco or petcetra.
It is tips like these that can make a bad situation, manageable.
So when it happens to you, and believe me, it will, smile because you've got a plan. Happy scooping!
