Toilet Training Tips 1. Ensure your child is ready before you start toilet training. You’re more likely to have success if both you and your child are ready. 2. Involve your child, make shopping for your toilet training essentials a special ‘event’, let them choose their own potty or training seat and Pull-Ups training pants. To encourage them further, perhaps try some toilet training tools. 3. Start giving praise from the beginning, and give praise for small steps – a toilet flush is better than refusing to go near it! 4. There is no place for punishment during toilet training. 5. Prepare yourself, the family and the home. 6. Get dad and older siblings actively involved to keep an eye out for tell tale ‘needing to go’ signs. 7. Familiarise your child with Pull-Ups before you start training, show them how Pull-Ups looks and feels differently to nappies. You can also put them in the drawer just like ‘real underwear’. 8. Wear clothes that your child can easily remove and put on themselves to encourage their desire to be independent. 9. Maintain a healthy diet with lots of fruit and vegetables as constipation can make the process much more difficult. 10. Relax – even if things aren’t going according to plan, simply postpone the process, this will only make it easier later on
