How to Potty Train Your Toddler Girl. Fun Potty Chairs

Children are all about visuals. Afterward, let her/him flush the toilet. The kit with stickers is $9. A big mistake some parents make is comparing their child's development to that of the neighbors or other family members.

Dress your child in easy to remove clothing. And we dropped everything no matter where we were to get her to a potty. This year, as my twins were turning two and a half, they seemed to be more receptive to the idea of moving from their diapers to at least pull up diapers. This will make them uncomfortable and will reinforce the need to use the toilet.

Treasures and Trinkets

Another secret for fast potty training is using a trinket reward system and a treasure box. Unfortunately potty training does not happen overnight, meaning parents don't go to bed and wake up with a fully potty trained toddler. By reading to your child or allowing your child watch TV it will make the potty time process go by a little quicker as well as put your child more at ease. Some children will regress if they are pushed too far.

Having a roll of toilet paper on hand is defiantly healthier option instead of using the tissue at the rest stop. If you're potty training a toddler, consider using potty training rewards to help motivate your toddler. With this variation, instead of earning the reward after a set number of positive stickers, the child would earn the reward after a set number of days with all positive stickers, perhaps seven, ten or fourteen days. When they are ready consistency is key.

Once she completes a full week of no accidents, make another goal for a month down the line. When you get home have the child help you throw out the diapers. Another option you can give him is a potty training urinal. Tip #6
