What has worked for us is to minimize time in the morning, mostly due to laziness and trying to sleep in as much as possible. Bath the night before and prep lunch ahead of time. Basically the morning just consists of getting dressed and brushing teeth, before we're out the door. The way I think about it you're moving so fast, you don't let them have time to focus on anything other than getting out of the house.
Normally we have bath time in the evening but not every day. In the morning we saw that his next was so dirty, so even for him the shower was a surprise which then triggered the rest.

I agree, bath before bed. Reduce the number of morning tasks.
