You can sing songs together, count bath toys, or see who can blow the most bubbles—whatever types of activities will entertain the toddler so that they don’t mind taking a bath. Use your imagination to get them involved and excited about bath time.  You can also use bath time as storytime, letting the toddler pick out a book or two they want read to them while they’re taking a bath. Play music while they’re in the bath, or ask the toddler to help you come up with a bathtime song. Get your toddler used to interacting with water by testing out some water activities outside of the bathroom—likely outdoors. You can encourage them to play in the sprinklers, sit in a kiddie pool, scoop water into cups from a bowl, or even just use a hose to water the plants. There are tons of bath toys available that help turn bathtime into a fun activity. Choose bath toys that won’t be damaged by water, such as rubber ducks, boats, animals, or squirt toys.  When bathtime is over, let the toys dry out so they don’t grow any sort of mold or mildew. You can purchase bath toy letters or waterproof books, allowing your toddler to work on their phonics while in the tub. Bath toys such as basketball hoops and fishing games help improve hand-eye coordination while taking a bath too. There are lots of different art supplies available for bathtime, such as bath paints, markers, crayons, and foams. Your toddler can draw on themselves or the tub’s walls to have fun while bathing, and it all washes off once bath time is over. There are also bath dyes that will turn the water a different color (but they don’t stain the tub or the toddler). This will help the toddler keep their head tilted back while you wash and rinse their hair, keeping all of the soap out of their eyes. You can tape a picture, attach stars, or hang a mobile from the ceiling to capture their attention. If your child is wary about the water, try to make the water engaging by adding bubbles. Your child will have fun playing in the bubble bath while you scrub them clean. Make sure to get bubble bath that will not irritate your toddler’s skin or eyes. If you don’t have bubble bath, you can create bubbles by pouring soap into a stream of running water. You most likely won’t win a battle with a toddler who is at the height of enjoying their playtime if you start telling them it's bathtime. Instead, create a routine for your toddler so that they develop an understanding of when bathtime will occur.  Stick to this schedule and have bathtime at the same time each day. For example, your toddler’s routine could involve playing outside, eating dinner, and then taking a bath. If you need to change the routine, explain the reasoning to your child.

summary: Turn taking a bath into a game. Try out water games outside of the bathtub. Use bath toys to make taking a bath fun. Buy bath paint or crayons for an artsy bathtime. Hang a picture or similar attention-grabber on the ceiling. Distract your child with bubbles. Set a routine to get your toddler excited for bath time.

In any language, minding your manners shows respect. Using polite words and phrases in Arabic, even if you don't know any other words in the language, communicates that you respect Arab culture. Some words to learn include:  "Al-ma'dirah": Excuse me (if you're asking someone to move) "Aasif": Sorry "Miin faadliikaa": Please "Shukran": Thank you "Al'afw": Reply to "thank you" Traditionally, men and women do not touch each other at all when greeting, unless they are close family members. Some women are willing to shake hands with men, particularly in more formal contexts. However, if you are a man, you should let the woman take the lead.  Stand away from the woman as you greet her. If she is willing to shake your hand, she will extend her hand to you. Don't automatically extend your hand first. If she clasps her hands together or places her right hand over her heart, that is an indication that she isn't willing to shake hands but is nonetheless pleased to meet you. When greeting someone of the same gender as you in a formal context, such as in a professional environment or for school, shaking hands is common. It's still a good idea to let the other person take the lead and offer their hand first. Always shake with your right hand, never your left. The left hand is considered unclean in Arab culture. Placing your right hand over your heart indicates that even though you're not going to touch the person, you're still quite pleased to meet them. If you have Arabic friends of a different gender, this is an appropriate way to greet them. Because men and women who aren't related to each other typically don't touch each other when greeting, this gesture is a way to signify your attachment to the person you're greeting without hugging or kissing them. In Arabic culture, touching noses is not considered a particularly intimate gesture and is frequently done between two men as well as between two women. Another gesture popular in some areas is to place 3 kisses on the other person's right cheek. These gestures are typically never appropriate with someone of a different gender unless you are related to them and have a very close relationship. Even then, many Arabs would not consider such a greeting appropriate in public. Elders are greatly respected in Arabic culture. A kiss on the forehead honors them and shows them respect. Reserve this gesture for elders you know well, or who are related to someone you know well. For example, if your Qatari friend introduces you to his grandmother, you might kiss her on the forehead when greeting her.

summary: Use polite words and phrases to show respect. Avoid touching when greeting someone of a different gender. Shake hands when greeting someone of the same gender formally. Place your right hand on your heart to greet someone warmly. Touch noses or kiss cheeks with people you know well. Greet an elder with a kiss on the forehead.

You can slice up the entire ham, or you can do a bit at a time if you're not serving many people at once. The foil will help to keep any moisture released from the ham slices inside the dish, which helps prevent the ham from drying out. The foil should be wrapped around the sides of the dish to prevent any heat from escaping. in the oven. The oven should be set to 275 degrees Fahrenheit (135 degrees Celsius). How long you have to reheat it will depend on how much the ham weighs. You should leave the ham in the oven for 10 minutes for every pound (0.5 kg) it weighs. About halfway through your cooking time, remove the foil from a corner of the baking dish. The slices should still look mostly pink. If you notice them turning white, they're drying out.
