  • I just want to say, while there could be a good reason for this, this all sounds too familiar to me. I think around 4-6 years my kid was also just miserable most of the time. For us that was more bed time and waking up in the night.

    I do agree with the other commenter it might be just dry skin. Have you tried mild soaps? In case you use liquid soap (easier for small kids anyway) try and find something cute, sometimes brands have pretty bottles and maybe he will like it more if the bottle looks like that.

    Or buy a refillable bottle that you then decorate with him, if he is into that.

    Otherwise you are doing everything righy as far as I can tell. Stay consistent and keep requesting him to wash hands. It will get better for sure.
