Fear of Water
My son who is 8 years old has a fear of water in his face. Even just a splash or a spritz. We are bathing him to ensure his hair gets washed, but he just wants to sit in the tub and put his wet hands on his head thinking its washing his hair. When I wash his hair I have used cups to rinse, I have put a sticker on the ceiling to tell him where to look while we rinse and I always have a washcloth on hand to wipe his face rencently. We did just recently "graduate" to using the hand sprayer of the shower but he fights me for a little bit...
