My kids have been taking cold baths these past few days since our house gets so hot during the day...it seems to really make them feel better and better yet, they totally love it!!! we hae A/C, but it just doesn't work very good....
The last house I lived in didn't have A/C it had swamp coolers instead and they didn't work very well, so to keep cool I would fill up the tub with cold water and bring my portable television into the bathroom. I would sit in that tub for at least an hour a day watching tv.
