Grace asked me to share this bathroom tip with you, Dear Reader. She ascertained it all by herself this past weekend.
If you lose the plug for your bathtub (or if your momma takes it away because you’ve already been in the bath for forty minutes), you can stuff a nice, thick washcloth in the drain to halt the flow of water. It’s surprisingly effective.
If you lose the washcloth (or if your rotten momma takes that, too), you can position your butt cheek over the drain to halt the flow, too. This method is also surprisingly effective, though it fails if you are light enough that someone can pick you up and remove your cheek from the drain.
Aren’t you glad she discovered that for you? Now you’ll never be stuck without a drain plug again.

Hahhahah! Xander discovered that one for me, too. Tub toys and cups also do a fantastic job.

Aah yes… I remember discovering that for myself many years ago…

She is a funny girl! We have to use the washcloth trick because our drain isn’t tight. Fortunately, Ladybug is too busy dumping water on me with her cups to notice that there is something else to play with!

My 6 yr old did this last night (sat on the drain)! He loves baths and was refusing to get out of the tub!
