Dove Kids Care makes bath time fun and teaches kids the power of self-care
TORONTO, March 24, 2021 /CNW/ – Research shows that children as young as three years old can start to build self-esteem when they see themselves positively represented in the world around them. Taking inspiration from the Dove Self-Esteem Project, the largest provider of body confidence education in the world, the newest Dove Kids Care bath collection encourages kids to discover the fun side of caring for themselves. Dove Kids Care packaging features positive affirmations and provides access to interactive body confidence resources by scanning a QR code on the back of each bottle.
“We’re excited to launch our first ever purpose-driven bath range for kids that is part of our Self-Esteem Project,” said Divya Singh, Category Lead, Skin Cleansing, Unilever. “Our mission is to inspire the next generation and make kids feel represented and encouraged to embrace their uniqueness.”
The new range of tear-free products are made with 100% skin-natural nutrients* without any sulfates, parabens, or phthalates, because kids’ skin deserves special care. The range is hypoallergenic, dermatologist and ophthalmologist tested. Each bottle is made from 100% post-consumer recyclable plastics.
The collection will be available at mass and drug retailers starting March 24, 2021, including:
- Foaming Body Wash available in Coconut Cookie and Cotton Candy scent.
- Bubble Bath available in Coconut Cookie scent.
The QR code on the back of each product drives to evidence-based self-esteem and body confidence resources on Dove.ca, including:
- an interactive Dove Self-Esteem Game
- thought-starters for bath time conversations to prompt healthy family discussions with evidence-based guidance to raise self-esteem in kids:

“We are extremely proud of our commitment to reach as many young people as possible through our work on the Dove Self-Esteem Project,” said Singh. “Since the launch of our self-esteem work in 2004, Dove has reached over 3.5 million Canadians, supporting our global mission in helping 250 million kids to build self-esteem by 2030. The progress Canada has made to-date is inspiring, and there’s more to come!”
