Ready, Set, Go

Let’s start by letting them pick out their potty chairs by themselves. They will feel like this is their own potty chair, since they were allowed to pick it. Also let them choose, where to put it, if you have a floor model.

Potty Training special spot

Let your child choose a space in the bathroom for his things – toys to play with, books to read. Make it his special spot. This is to reinforce, that going to the bathroom should be in a specific place and not in his pants.

Good Child!

Rewards for going to the toilet, wiping, washing hands and so on still go a long way.  I have found that stickers in a book or on a potty training chart on the wall work especially well. This works best for children around the age of two or older. Younger ones prefer playtime, tickle party or a story from their favorite book. Candy rewards might not be the best of ideas.

Dolly need to go potty, too.

A potty training doll is another great idea to encourage your child to go potty. After giving the dolly the bottle, it has to go potty. Your child realizes, that there is a connection between drinking and going potty.

Make It Fun

Since there is no way around the baby potty training part in your life, make it easy and make it fun. Even though there are some challenges along the way, but persistence and creativity will always pay off.
