Finding children’s bath products that are fun and effective is, in my experience, a strangely daunting task. Like many kids, my daughter is fully obsessed with bathtime and bubble baths. She also has allergies and super-sensitive skin.
I’m a strong believer that little ones should enjoy splashing around and using their imaginations during bathtime – so I was thrilled to finally find Childs Farm, an award-winning, mom-founded British brand that provides gentle, non-irritating, and fun solutions in their Hair and Body Wash, Bubble Bath, and 3 in 1 Swim products.
We’ve now waved goodbye to the clinical-looking and smelling sensitive skin bath products we’ve tried over the past 5 years in favor of something the whole family loves so much more.

Childs Farm Key Benefits and Ingredients
Childs Farm is known for creating mild and gentle skincare solutions for both babies and children that are also fun! I love that each product has been approved by both dermatologists and pediatricians – that extra seal of approval is one key benefit I always look for when choosing any product for my daughter.
According to the brand, its fragrances are “scientifically designed to be non-irritating,” which I was interested in testing out myself. All the products are tear-free, sulfate-free, and are quick-rinse formulas, which is amazing. Everything ranging from the Hair and Body Wash to the Bubble Bath, and 3 in 1 Swim is all created from 95+% natural origin ingredients. Key ingredients include Vitamin E, which is a natural skin-conditioning ingredient, and they’re also free from sulfates, vegan, and cruelty-free.
Our Experience Testing Childs Farm Products
We started with the Hair and Body Wash, which we tested in both Sweet Orange and Watermelon & Pineapple scents. My daughter’s favorite, unsurprising to me, was the Watermelon & Pineapple scent. I loved the foamy lather the product created, and the scent wasn’t super indulgent, which I extra appreciated because strong fragrances not only make my daughter sneeze, but me as well.
The product dispenses well from the bottle, which sounds like a given, but so many kids' products overdo it with their packaging. It just makes the whole experience 100 times harder and more complicated. Her skin felt hydrated and nourished for the rest of the day after use, and she commented on how lovely her hair smelled after the bath. Two big wins in our household!

Next up: 3-in-1 Swim, which I’ve admittedly never tested before (it’s a shampoo, conditioner, and body wash all in one bottle). I think it’s honestly great to have on hand when you’re in a pinch and have to get a quick bath in when you’re running behind schedule. As someone who always has to pack specific bath products for my daughter when traveling, it’s an easy one-and-done to pack. The product is enriched with skin-conditioning Vitamin E and Guar, which are key ingredients in leaving your child’s skin and hair feeling nice and soft. I was concerned about omitting conditioner as a step of its own, but I was surprised that it really wasn’t needed after using this product!

My favorite, though, had to be the Bubble Bath, which we tested in Raspberry. It was an all-around fun, sensorial experience! Bubbles were aplenty, giggles filled the room, and it truly just brought joy to bath time. Importantly, the bubble bath didn’t dry out my daughter’s skin, which is something we’ve dealt with in the past. This product really did prove to me that this brand knocked it out of the park in creating kids’ bathcare that is gentle and fun.

My Final Thoughts
After using all three products, I can confidently say that these bathcare products have officially earned a spot in my child’s skincare rotation. As a mom who has struggled to find a gentle product that still provides joy, I’m so happy I had the opportunity to test these products out – and that they’ve finally made their way over the pond to the US.
If you’re interested in testing them out for your kids, you can now shop Childs Farm at Walmart.com.
