We gave them baths in the lake with a bar of Ivory soap, Ivory soap because it floated.
And we also take the grandkids. We take 1 every summer for as long as they are willing to stay & have really enjoyed the 1 on 1 with each of them. We are taking the last one of 7 this summer & then some of the others want to go again.
