1. Use a turkey skewer to poke holes on the bottom and sides of the plastic bottle, making holes about one inch apart.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Place your baby in a baby bathtub or get into a regular bathtub with him, if you like. Lower your baby into the water gently, to give him time to get comfortable with the strange sensation.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Fill the plastic bottle with bathtub water.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Hold the bottle up so your baby can see the water pour out from the holes.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Hold the bottle over your baby’s body and let the water gently tickle him.<\/span><\/p>\n

6. If your baby’s game, hold the bottle over his head to make it rain!<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Place one floating item into the tub and say, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153It floats!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n

3. After a minute, place a sinkable item into the tub and say, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153It sinks!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n
