i have noticed a few people ask the question about toilet training, just thought i would write a few tips on the topic.
so many people ask the question when is the right age to start toilet training, it is up to you and your child, no child is
the same they are all unique.i used to work in daycare we had kids at 14 months being trained all the way up to 2 1/2.
anyway when starting to toilet train i think best investment is a little pottie. i would take the kids to the "Big toilet" for "big kids", after breeky, after morning tea, after lunch, after afternoon tea, before bed and after they woke up from their naps. i know this sounds like alot but we found they needed the encouragement.
when the kids did wees on the pottie we would jump up and down and praise the kids telling them what big kids they were, we even gave out stickers and stamps. we soon found the kids running out and grabbing us to show us they could go all by themselves.
it doesn't have to be an ugly task the kids think it is great fun if you make it a fun task.
remember
1) take them as much as they need it
2) positive reinforcement
3) make it a game
4) rewards are always great
5) pull ups are even a good way to stop from going through so many undies
hope this has helped anyone out there going through toilet training with their kids
