Mama, There’s an Elephant in the Potty!

Toddlers are willing to do anything that’s fun! Parents learn this trick early and love to employ fun tools to make life easier for themselves and their children. It’s a particularly important concept in the art — no, the science — of potty training. Tinkle Time Training Stickers from Goo-Goo Baby make the fun happen each time a child successfully “tinkles” in (not around) the toilet.

It’s a big surprise to find an elephant or other animal in the potty! The game is have perfect aim to tinkle away the white coating and reveal an animal picture. The smallest amount of urine makes the image visible. Each image lasts up to four months with gentle cleaning, and with three creatures per pack, caregivers can quickly change out the sticker if a child begins to lose interest in any given animal.

The stickers (SRP $5.99) add entertaining “target practice” to the potty training adventure, all packaged in four different themes:

• Bugs - worm, ladybug and bee
• Canadian Critters - bear, beaver and squirrel
• Jungle Animals - elephant, giraffe and tiger
• Sea Creatures - whale, lobster and porpoise

Improve the Bottom Line with Potty Protectors

Potty training is basically a two-part process: first, gently getting a child to use the commode and then reinforcing the habit of washing hands. Children don’t understand the lurking germs on a toilet seat, particularly in a public restroom, and they won’t usually care if parents cringe when they reach out and touch the seat despite all efforts to the contrary. Keep Me Clean™ Disposable Potty Protectors by Summer Infant let parents eliminate their shudders and spare their children the germ exposure.

The “go-anywhere” protectors are oversized toilet seat covers that drape the seat and edge with several inches of overhang to ensure that toddlers don’t touch that germ-ridden throne. Covers stay put with tape and fit standard and elongated seats. Parents can relax on all counts, because biodegradable Keep Me Clean™ Disposable Potty Protectors are “green” while stopping themselves from turning green at the thought of exposing their little ones to yucky germs (SRP $4.98/10pk).

Poteez is Ready Wherever Nature Calls

In our mobile society that emphasizes take-out packaging and biodegradable products, it was inevitable that the Poteez Disposable Potty was invented for potty training convenience wherever nature calls! Parents can slip the specially-folded corrugated cardboard potty box into a diaper bag or the trunk of a car as emergency backup for moments when the toddler “just can’t wait!”. This precaution avoids confusing the child with conflicting messages about always using the potty versus reverting to diapers or training pants during travel.

The patented Poteez Disposable Potty is clean, water-retentive, and easy to assemble. After use, one simply seals the box and disposes of it in the trash. However, being entirely cardboard (80% recycled) with no plastic liner, the potty is biodegradable like paper. When parent and child are on the go, it allows the child consistent access to a potty and eliminates the need to carry and clean a plastic portable potty.

The Potty Tots Have Something to Toot About!

A child’s positive behavior deserves positive reinforcement, especially when it relates to a learned behavior like using the toilet. Making the successful transition from toddlers-in-training to little grown-up is much gentler and easier when accompanied by the smiling happy faces of the Potty Tots preschool cartoon friends. Their antics and dialog are designed to encourage and motivate children to master this important developmental achievement!

Adults don’t usually think of potty training as “fun,” but Potty Tots makes it entertaining for little children with singing and dancing cartoon characters in gender-appropriate kits for boys or girls. The training process becomes a friendly game. The kit includes a story-based guide book, an animated DVD with a trio of Potty Tots songs and musical video extras, an 11” x 17” illustrated chart that presents 6 easy steps for using the toilet, and a reward chart and stickers for marking progress. The charts are brightly colored and coated with a finish that allows easy cleaning with a damp cloth (SRP $19.95).
