Why P is for Potty?

P is for Potty is the perfect companion for parents and toddlers at potty-training time!


 The perfect companion for parents and toddlers at potty-training time, P is for Potty uses ABCs to engage, entertain and teach potty vocabulary. From “A is for Ask” to “F is for Flush” to “G is for Good Job!” this empowering message will turn potty training into a fun, rewarding experience for everyone—especially your child!!

“A big-eyed, blond boy is the star in the simple, eye-catching illustrations for each letter, beginning with “Aa is for Ask”—as in the unlikely question, “Can I go to the bathroom, please?” Putting a look that promotes positive toilet training into alphabetical form is a tall order, but Mutunga manages to create a reasonable, enjoyable line through the potty training process.”

Potty ABCs - A is for AWARE - in practice

As soon as my younger daughter learned to sit, at about 7 months, I started getting her to seat on the potty. For a long time, nothing happened – however, I continued and made it a fun time for bonding. I wanted her to be AWARE  that potty is a place for "pee" and "poo".

ABCs of Potty: B is for Begin

B is for Begin! Beginning the practice of getting your baby to “pee” and “poo” in the potty is an exciting and sometimes scary thing. In order to begin, all you need is a potty or a toilet seat.

Casually and positively tell baby “hey, let’s go potty”. If baby is completely against the idea, give it a break for a few days and gradually re-introduce the practice. When using a potty, be flexible about where to put it at this stage. Some children like to have the potty in their room, the ...
