How many baths or showers may a two years old child have per day?

Varies: There is no set limit to keeping a child clean. For example, if they are dirty from outside playing, or a diaper accident, etc, then by all means, clean the child in the bath. Of Course common sense dictates the child should not be in the bath water all day either. Generally, a bath daily is fine in a 2 year old.

Depends: There is no magic number. I suggest at least one a day but this depends on whether the child has any skin conditions that may be exacerbated
