POLL: Hand OR Washcloth?

I have been using my hand to bathe DD. I feel that up to this point she benefits from skin-on-skin touch. But she IS getting older and I think I will switch to a washcloth soon.

^_^:
I usually use my hand. Although, DS has taken to wallowing in the dirt while outside (when I say wallowing, I REALLY mean wallowing) and so when he's really dirty I use a washcloth.
Once winter comes I'll definitely only use my hand though, I imagine. He won't get as dirty with lots of clothes on (hopefully) and I won't want to irritate his skin or get it too dry.

^_^:
I use my hand, except on her face and when she's REALLY grubby and needs a scrub; then I use a soft washcloth.

^_^:
i've always used a washcloth.

^_^:
I use a super soft newborn sponge. I actually threw it away today because it started to get mold or meldew or whatever in it. We pretty much stopped using the sponge, I just pour water over his shoulders with a cup after he has soaked for a while.

^_^:
Both! Really soft washcloth for grubby bits - and so that dd can help me to wash too, and hands to massage and ease out her muscles!
