I recently switched from using a rug in the center of my play space to these textured stickers, they’re meant for making your shower or bathtub non-slip, highly recommended. Unlike a rug there’s no trip hazard, they don’t slide around, and they’re almost invisible. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Z87GK45?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
For whatever reason, when my family resurfaced/re-did/restored our bathtub, it became incredibly slick. To the point of me slipping multiple times. Worse, it's a weird situation where the tub has a shower head in it. But because it was originally built to be just a tub, there's a window in the stall that shouldn't be there. Because water constantly shooting at a window with a wooden frame is a bad idea.
And so we ended up putting a clear shower curtain in front of the window so that it doesn't rot. But now said curtain blocks the sole handle in the stall used for balance. Which is even worse after the tub has been made slicker.
Also, the tub/stall has glass sliding doors. Yeah. The other day, I lost my balance so badly, that the full force of my body fell against the doors, without that handle to grab for. It was surprised that the doors didn't break. I am not a light or even average build person. I was full on expecting to be stabbed by jagged chunks of these doors to death. Somehow, they held up. But it was a death trap.
The moment that happened, we bought these strips as I was fed up with almost slipping and dying for a year. They feel kind of like velcro under your feet. Very grippy. And if want a regular bath in this tub now, they're not gonna feel great against your back and butt. But at least I'm not worrying about dying while showering anymore.
