每天逼孩子洗澡，太难了

Most parents know children sometimes aren't the biggest fans of bath time. But if you're struggling to get your kid into the tub every night, you can take solace in the fact that bathing daily may not be necessary for children. In fact, according to guidelines from the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), it's only necessary for children ages 6 to 11 to bathe at least once or twice a week. However, more frequent baths may be necessary if they are active or dirty. Children also need to bathe after swimming in a pool, lake, the ocean, or another body of water, and if they are sweaty, dirty, or stinky.

大多数父母都知道，孩子有时不太喜欢洗澡。但如果你每天晚上都在努力让你的孩子泡澡，你可以从每天洗澡对孩子来说可能没有必要这一事实中得到安慰。事实上，根据美国皮肤病学会(AAD)的指导方针，6到11岁的孩子每周至少洗澡一到两次是必要的。然而，如果他们是活跃的或脏的，可能需要更频繁的洗澡。孩子们在游泳池、湖泊、海洋或其他水体中游泳后，如果他们出汗、肮脏或发臭，也需要洗澡。

Babies, toddlers, and children younger than 6 should also be getting into the bathtub at least a couple of times a week, according to the Cleveland Clinic. While their delicate skin doesn't need to be bathed daily, if babies or young children get dirty or have an explosive diaper incident, bathing more frequently is definitely encouraged.

根据克利夫兰诊所的建议，婴儿、幼儿和6岁以下的儿童也应该每周至少上几次浴缸。虽然他们娇嫩的皮肤不需要每天洗澡，但如果婴儿或年幼的孩子弄脏了或有尿布爆炸事件，一定要经常洗澡。

By the time kids hit puberty and enter their tween and teen years, they should be bathing daily. The AAD also recommends they wash their face two times a day to remove oil and dirt buildup. This can help prevent acne, per the Cleveland Clinic. And of course, they should also shower after playing sports, swimming, or sweating.

当孩子们进入青春期，进入他们的十来岁和十几岁时，他们应该每天洗澡。AAD还建议他们每天洗两次脸，以清除积聚的油脂和污垢。据克利夫兰诊所介绍，这有助于预防痤疮。当然，他们也应该在运动、游泳或出汗后淋浴。

Bath time tips for parents

给父母的洗澡时间小贴士

While some people fear bathing too often may irritate the skin, that's really not too much of a concern, according to the Cleveland Clinic, especially if you're using gentle soaps. However, harsh antimicrobial soaps can dry out skin, so avoid bathing your child with these unless instructed by your pediatrician. "Choose mild soaps that don't lather up too much and don't have added fragrance," says Joan Tamburro, a dermatologist at the Cleveland Clinic, in a post on the hospital's website. "And don't assume all baby soaps are mild." Always remember you can ask your doctor for recommendations if you're not sure which soap to use during your child's bath.

尽管有些人担心洗澡太频繁可能会刺激皮肤，但根据克利夫兰诊所(Cleveland Clinic)的说法，这真的不是太大的问题，尤其是当你使用温和的香皂时。然而，强力抗菌肥皂会使皮肤干燥，所以除非儿科医生指示，否则不要用这些肥皂给孩子洗澡。克利夫兰诊所(Cleveland Clinic)的皮肤科医生琼·坦布罗(Joan Tamburro)在医院网站上的一篇文章中说:“选择温和的香皂，不要产生太多泡沫，也不要增加香味。”“不要以为所有的婴儿香皂都是温和的。”记住，如果你不确定给孩子洗澡时用哪种肥皂，你可以向医生寻求建议。

To make bath time more appealing to younger children, consider making it a time when they hear their favorite stories or play with their favorite waterproof bath toys. Just make sure these toys are non-toxic and don't harbor mold, fungus, or bacteria, Tamburro advises.

为了让洗澡的时间对年幼的孩子更有吸引力，可以考虑让他们在洗澡的时候听他们最喜欢的故事，或者玩他们最喜欢的防水洗澡玩具。Tamburro建议，只要确保这些玩具是无毒的，不会滋生霉菌、真菌或细菌。
