Cold Mitten Friction: Get a bowl of cold water and a washcloth. Grab one corner of the washcloth under your thumb. Wrap the cloth around your hand as shown in the illustration above. Take the free part of the cloth hanging down from your hand, fold it toward the palm of your hand, and tuck it under the edge of the cloth crossing over the palm of your hand.
Dip the mitten in the cold water, and, starting with the hands, rub the skin briskly in an up and down motion. Proceed up the arm, briskly rubbing all areas of the skin.

Nice!
I do a hot mitten friction sometimes with a sinkful of water and a little squirt of Dr. Bronners soap. They call it a towel bath or something crazy like that!
It does get you surprisingly clean without using too much water...
I want to administer one of these wearing a muumuu in a dark smokey kitchen.
how to administer a cold mitten-friction:
1.turn on cold water tap (bathroom for younger kids);kuz the sink's lower than kitchen.
2. grab kid around neck with one arm and grab rough wash cloth in other hand.
3. soak wash cloth under running cold water till soaked and then squeeze excess out.
4.rub vigourly on kids face till you can't stand the screamin' and squirmin' anymore.
5.release kid from half-nelson and go get the other kid.
6.repeat the same process for each kid.
7. the whole procedure should take about 1-2 min. @ kid;depending on whether the next kid is hiding or not!
voi. of exp.
