At what age did you allowed your children to take showers on their own? What is considered too early for one?

My 3 year old LOVES the shower, and he is very independent, I supervise the shampoo and washing but other than that he has a ball!

so change one. your kids are missing out in something so good and wholesome and clean as a shower. I sometimes cant convince him to take a bath so when I tell him he can have a shower he is all for it...

A bath gets you cleaner than a shower, actually. A shower just saves water.

NO WAY> you are soaking in dirty water. Shower rinses it off and it goes doen the drain!

My 4 1/2 year old only likes to take showers. She refuses to take a bath. And my son that is 3 years old loves taking showers too. I keep an eye on both of them while they shower. They love it.
