Abstract
Abstract A body support for retaining a small child on its back in a reclining position for bathing and for washing its hair comprising a one-piece member adapted to rest on the bottom of the washing tub. A central supporting portion of the member is generally sloped with sidewall portions and oppositely sloped end portions that combine to retain the child in comfort and security. The sloped end portion at the higher end of the central member supports the child''s head as its hair is being washed and allows the head to be tilted so that soapy water will not flow into the child''s eyes and over his body.
