you are a lot of different potty training them
even promise to have you tell that a diaper Z ingest one day I'm not buying
that but
okay but if you've already started the process you know it's not always that
easy
will help is on the way today we have the latest here hired
should encourage your child to use them but first let's get the scoop or should
I say
the poop on potty training from the author you're a good mom and your kids
are so bad either
and spokesperson for pullups Jen singer it's so good to see you
all good to be here I'm so glad to hear his boy do I need your help sounds like
it
first tell us how do you know your child is ready
to potty train addition signs we should be looking for yeah you need to look for
the signs
readiness and it's not necessarily in when your mother says it's time
you need to make sure that your child is drive for up to two hours sir
throughout a nap that they show interest in the potty and I don't mean putting
toy boats
into the toilet and that maybe they tell you that they have to go
these are all great find show that they're ready to start potty training
so putting mice and playing the toy cars and he's not ready not okay
okay now and now I know so you need to figure out how you're going to get
started getting tips you need to come up with a plan
you need to come up with a plan that you're gonna stick with and you have to
decide if you're going to use one of those little parties portable potties
are gonna go straight to the toilet and that depends on
your child you have to decide if you're going to ask your child may have to go
potty every hour or so
and you have to decide whether or not you're going to
use pull ups are gonna go straight on your pants this is all part of the plan
make a plan and stick with it and then everybody's going to be on board
mom dad grandma the babysitter anybody who's gonna be spending a lot of time
with your child
anybody who's going to be with your toddler really has to be on board with
you otherwise your gonna be pretty much
respect pushing the reset button every time you start to try and potty train
again
so how do you get them to want to use it well in town too but they're not gonna
go
you can tell them but for Tyler's especially you gotta make it fun
any you're gonna feel like you're kinda silly what you should be have
games and shit sing songs English make puppets and there's
party songs that you can sing with them which make you feel really Philly but
believe me they love it
it's fun for them they're going to want to go in and trying on the potty I have
saying every party song that you could even imagine but you do we have to make
it fun for kids
I'm reward Yuki right and stickers you try we've tried that in putting stickers
on a chart on a while but sometimes stickers get old what do you do when
it's just not working anymore
right offer my kids putting on the chart got also I started putting them on their
shirts that when my husband got home from work they can
he gets Ian give them a high five but I know that other people have used
little cars for for boys are little dolls were even little candies
you don't wanna make that too much about tree you know don't take them to Disney
every time they go poop on the potty
by you don't keep it simple and if you find that every word isn't working then
changes start a different one if it would help all taken the Disney hey
I'm sure its it's very challenging it definitely is for parents
alright accidents they're gonna happen yet what's the best way to deal with
them know it two words you should remember when your potty training that
is expect
setbacks now in the beginning I'll probably be a lot of accidents in your
feel happy
like you're up to your elbows in P and you probably will be yes but after a
while they'll get the hang a bit and then I'll have an accident you think or
what did I do wrong
never school your child because they can't help it they
you know they might have an accident just clean it up nonchalantly and have
them help
you clean it up to say this is where we put the pope and put it in the body
and then they learnt it right their next time instead of on your carpet
which we just don't want you to help me tremendously sure a lot of parents out
there
thank you so much appreciate you coming in and if you would like more
information we've got it for you
we can actually start the process you need honey
right coming up next American Baby magazine seen your lifestyle editor
Jessica Hart shorn
shows this summer the latest modeled
so much for coming and thank you see I know you're going to potty train to
yes yes we both have children right here right here in the space hotel
three years old all right now you can tell us about some parties there some
other very basic
others are really interesting have one that plays music when my son goes right
a lot of fun tell us what you recommend
what this if you all with no bells and whistles the baby our party is really
cool modern incomes are kinda colors black and pink
things into a corner bathroom they also do this kinda party which is just a seat
to put on the toilet seats
if you're me if you want your child to get used to using the real toilet
but you know the holes little big for three able to step underneath doesn't
get up there
they can climb right on up to those are both maybe we are but someone on the
belt track
I love it this is a safety first jackpot play slots I just a
it really gets me excited to go what here on the road this is good for
traveling
yeah I have a family who told me that I you know they were always in the minivan
and they would not have been able bodied without a party to guess this cover pot
i'm kalin you know it's like a little fold up so it's almost
flat same great for tragedies aggressor bag with an
and then you've got in the car community you don't have to like transit got about
them
I like the pocket now into another incentive is telling that they get to
wear big boy under party big hall
but on the worst an incentive at least especially be on a favor characters I
just want that are cute may also feel so much better than a diaper that sometimes
that can help them along
exactly minutes now I'm pull up so your friend they were kinda like underwear so
really encourage them to use them like underwear and even the right answer
keeping it up
by ear wipes like uses old I first put these in a drawer and really treat them
like special underwear
great idea yet try to get the kids to realize it I'm gonna put in a few
okay like that okay now here's some other great ideas and books that talk
about party change
worried about a Glendale you know lol grover like a favor characters are potty
training it makes it seem like this is just a normal thing in that you wanna
do it I and so you re books together
also books for the parents because it is it's a long process sometimes it can
take it you know a couple months or longer
chain a challenge right now again keeping up enthusiasm ICI vous
sticker chart this is a great idea skidsteer so every time I use the potty
given you know a little sticker and help them project to go ahead helps your
child learn to go on the party
I'm running time: exactly some kids a sticker is really like a
Donovan's and other kids need to be bribed and thats I
here at the ball them an answer and I maintain that potty training is one of
the few
you know the few times that a bribe or reward as you might wanna call it is
really worth it
are are directed highly trained her son by giving them and Eminem every time you
use
honey which is the wifi you know did more than just be and at what time
said unto me and it worked that and crayons and you know what
other also say that like peer pressure can help when they go to preschool and
all the other kids are doing it
