I have been massaging my son Ben since he was 2 weeks old.  He is now 3 years old.  He has recently returned to enjoying massages after a break away from it.  I now offer him a back or foot massage before bed where I tell him a little story.  He chooses what character he wants to be and the massage takes us on an exciting journey.  After he has his massage, he gets the massage oil, swishes it between his hands and says “mummy, what do you want to be?” and then he massages my back, arm or foot, depending on what it is he wants to massage.  It is so unbelievably gorgeous!  So parents, continue to offer massages to your children, and at some point your child will start to reciprocate the offer and your heart will melt when it happens!
