A potty training story
Learning to use the potty takes time and many tries. A story where the hero practises, has an accident and tries again shows that it is all part of learning.
Tips for potty training
- Start when the child shows they are ready.
- Keep the potty in a familiar place.
- Praise trying, not only success.
- Stay calm about accidents.
- Read a potty story together while sitting on the potty.
