Turn On That Tap, And Get In The Tub, Because It's…

Do you like baths? Yes? Then today, you got a bonus. No, not chocolate cookies. It's extra bath time. But what's the catch? No duckies? Well, to tell the truth, there is NO catch, because today, is International Bath Day.

What? It's not a surprise that even such a small matter could have an international day in honor of it, like baths, but hey, what you experience in your bathtub, wasn't always that way. It stretched as far back, as the dawn of humanity when Homosapiens (humans) first started out. Not only did the humans from the stone age all the way to now used baths as a way of cleaning, but animals like bears did too. They would jump into a pool (not a modern swimming pool) filled with water, and then sort of “scrub” themselves with their big furry claws, to “clean” themselves. Though they don’t take it seriously, animals tend to keep clean, like we do, even if it takes licking.

Bath day is celebrated annually on June 14th, because the legend says that on this day, Archimedes, Greek mathematician, discovered the Archimedes principle. Tigger suggests to use a big bathtub today, to enjoy the experience.
