Ideas for Potty Training

Did you know that there is a right way and a wrong way to potty train your toddler? Well there is believe it or not. Parents can always use some helpful hints and some ideas at this time their child’s life; I know that I could have.

The most important thing to do when you potty train your toddler is to encourage, encourage, and encourage. Remain focused and stay positive never react too much on the negative. This is similar to bathroom training. The first step is to get your toddler used to being in the bathroom. When they get close encourage then by being truly positive or some parents use a sticker chart. Remember that there will be some accidents, but do not over react to this. If you happen to overreact about any accidents while trying to potty train you could make the whole process drag on longer then you would like.

When you go to the bathroom take your toddler with you, they like to do as you do. When your toddler sees what you do in the bathroom they will also want to do it and feel more at ease when they try to go to the potty. Another idea is to use a stuffed animal or a doll and pretend that it is using the potty, some toddlers can learn from this also. Which is sometimes similar to training. Be sure that ever time that your toddler uses the potty and only of they do, reward them with praise, or stickers, whatever you have decided that the reward will be.

Potty training needs to be done in a stress free environment. Also it needs to be done when your toddler is ready, not you. If your toddler does not potty train right away, they may not be ready. Wait a few more weeks of this happens then try it again. Unlike toilet training sometimes. Remember that is important that you are never negative while you potty train your toddler, sooner or later they will learn how to do it.
