Bubble Bath

You wanna try something different today during bath time, J? Yeah? What abt a bubble bath?

Why a bubble bath; your inquisitive mind may ask. Ahhh, son, let me educate you.

Bubbles on top of the water, less ambiguously known as a foam bath (see photo), can be obtained by adding a product containing foaming surfactants to water and temporarily aerating it by agitation eg by the fall of water from a faucet.

The practice is popular for personal bathing because the foam insulates the bath water, keeping it warm for longer.

It can also keep the body of the bather from being visible, preserving modesty while giving the appearance that a performer who is actually clothed is tub-bathing normally.

Children find foam baths particularly amusing, so they are an inducement to get them into the bathtub.

With all being said, I think the last paragraph makes the most sense to you, right?

Let's jump in before all the bubbles are gone. Splash!
