Did you know that there is a right way and a wrong way to potty train your toddler? Believe it or not there is. Parents can always use some helpful hints and some ideas at this time their child’s life; I know that I could have.
Encourage, encourage, encourage is the most important thing to remember while you are trying to potty train your toddler. It is best of you stay focused on the positive rather then the negative. You need to first get your toddler ready by getting your toddler used to the bathroom. When your toddler has come close encourage them by being positive some parents find it easier by having 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.
It is a great idea to take your toddler with you when you go to the bathroom, this is because toddlers like to do everything that 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. Use a teddy bear or a doll and pretend that they are using the potty, some toddlers will understand from this. 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. Also it needs to be done when your toddler is ready, not you. If you rtoddler shows no intrest at all then chances are they are not ready to potty train. 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.
