I would also think twice about the bathtub - I don't know any child under 6 who likes to take a shower. For them, it's like waterboarding. And washing a two-year-old who runs hysterically through the big shower is no fun. They get cold too quickly, they don't like the splashing water - strangely enough, they do in the bathtub and swimming pool - but once you have them nicely softened up in the bathtub, then you can wash their hair without the neighbors calling the police.

I completely agree with : NONE of our 4 children liked / like showering. Bathing, on the other hand, has been the greatest fun since time immemorial. You just have to accept it...

By the way, it’s similar with all acquaintances who have children.

Once again about the utility room: You need to define what this room is actually going to be used for by you and then see if these uses are compatible. If, as with many, it is actually supposed to be the laundry room, then that does not fit with the dirt sluice. If, as with us, it is basically intended exclusively as a storage room, then it fits. For example, we have all tools, paints, brushes, etc., our work clothes for craftsmanship and gardening, all shoes including running shoes, garden shoes, rubber boots, and work shoes there.

That is perhaps also a completely cultural influence. I have known mud rooms as a side entrance since my childhood. I can't remember ever using the main entrance at my grandmother's house as a child :D and there were always washing machines there, so you could immediately put the dirty or snow-wet things into the machine or hang them up to dry. There was also a large sink for shoes or the dog. And a shelf where boots and overshoes were placed. The washed laundry was processed elsewhere. At our home, it was similar, only the washing machines were in a room behind the kitchen.

So I just can't cope with the concept of having washing machines on the sleeping floor. I understand the argument that you want to wash where the laundry accumulates and goes back to - but if a large part of the laundry comes dirty from outside, then that concept isn't quite right either.

... well, I don't know; on a farm it may still be the case that a 'large part of the laundry comes from outside' - but in our curated single-family home neighborhoods in the suburbs, probably not..

Our grandchildren only look like they are breaded when they come from the forest playgroup - and it was muddy weather. - That's what the mud clothes from Tchibo are for, and you can spray them off outside with the garden hose. But the forest playgroup is also over after a few years...

That's why I wrote that it depends on how you live. My husband basically owns half an outdoor sports store, my children play football or are somehow messing around in the dirt, I ride trails a lot with the mountain bike, and we have a dog. After a weekend, I often wish for a real mud room with washing machines.
