Information for Potty Training

By: Mark Patterson

Did you know that there is a right way and a wrong way to potty train your toddler? Believe it or not there is. Any parent can use some advice when their child is in this stage of their lives; 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. You need to first get your toddler ready by getting your toddler used to 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 over react the whole potty training process could drag on longer then it needs to.

When you go to the bathroom take your toddler with you, they like to do as you do. If your toddler sees what you do when you go to the potty they will be more at ease when they try. 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. Make certain that every time that your toddler uses the potty, reward them with lots of praise, stickers, or wheatever you have decided.

Potty training needs to be done in a stress free environment. Another thing is that your toddler will not potty train until they are ready and no sooner. If your toddler does not potty train right away, they may not be ready. Give up on the idea for a few weeks then try again they may get it the second try. Never be negative when potty training your toddler, they will pick up on it sooner or later.
