ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a bathing apparatus for a child that comprises a tub and a cradle. The tub is nestable with the cradle and includes a bottom wall and at least one side wall, each wall having an inside and an outside surface. The bottom wall includes a heat conductive means for conducting heat from the outside surface to the inside surface thereof. The cradle comprises a tub receiving portion and a base. The tub receiving portion is adapted for nestable engagement with the tub and further includes a heat generating means. When the tub is nested with the cradle, the heat generating means makes physical contact with the heat conductive means of the tub so as to allow heat transmission thereto. An electric switch is located electrically between the heating element and a power source. The electric switch is preferably a thermostat for deactivating the heat generating means when the water in the tub reaches a selected temperature. A water spraying means is preferably included that may be actuated to circulate water from the tub, through the pump, through the spray nozzle, and back into the tub.
