How to train toilets
Toilet training for graduating from diapers. You need to take your time and work hard. Learn what stages to take and provide solid support.
What is toilet training?
The practice of graduating from diaper and using the toilet to pee and poop is called "toilet training."
Children who use diapers still don't feel like they want to go to the bathroom. Also, the adult toilets are expensive and large, so it's not possible to take them straight away and say "I'll do it here." You need to take steps and practice little by little.
When did toilet training start?
It is necessary to be able to walk, to support your body firmly and to sit upright. Furthermore, once the pee intervals start to last for about two hours, you can start training.
It is generally recommended to start at around 2 years old. Some children start at the age of 1.5 years old, but as soon as possible it's not good enough, so there's no need to hurry.
What do you need?
Toilet training involves a potty that can be placed on the floor, a small auxiliary toilet seat for children, a step (stool) used to sit on the toilet seat, and training pants.
Both potty and auxiliary toilet seats come in a straddle type and a sitting type.
We also recommend posting a sticker if you can do it well so that the students can enjoy the work. You can also prepare a calendar of characters, and there are many cute backings and stickers for toilet training available on sale, so if you look for something your child will love, they may do their best.
Starting with getting interested in toilets
First of all, you need to let your child know that pee and poop are done by using the toilet. While there are senior moms and dads who have used picture books and apps, I have also heard stories of moms and dads going to the bathroom and showing them what they actually use. You might want to imitate the strategy of letting the child flush it out and giving the toilet a positive image.
Let's get used to the pot
The next step is to make your potter interested and recognize it as a place to use.
Place it in the living room or other room and first tell them that it is for the children. Once you get used to it, try sitting with your clothes on first and then with your diaper removed. If you don't like it, don't push yourself too hard and be careful not to give the pot a bad impression.
They then transfer the poop from the diaper to the potty, then take it to the toilet and flush it, telling them that the potty is the place to pee and poop.
Make your house available
If you get excited, slurp, or show your appearance that you want to go to the bathroom, you'll try to have them sit on your potty. This is a practice of connecting the feeling of peeing and pooping with the potty and toilet. You may not be able to do well at first, but don't be impatient. Please watch over me with a gentle attitude.
If you want to pee or poop, try to sit on your potty yourself, or you can do it well, praise it as an exaggeration.
Introducing training pants!
Training pants are used during the transition from diaper to cloth pants. It is more absorbent than regular cloth pants, so you don't have to worry about getting dirty clothes, floors, etc. even if you can't make it in time for the toilet. Another characteristic is that compared to diapers, the feeling of wetness is more likely to be transmitted to the skin, and it is disgusting, making it more likely to feel like you're going to go to the bathroom next time.
There are two types of cloth that can be washed and reused, and disposable paper types, so choose the one that is easy to use.
The final stage! Practice using the toilet
Once you get used to using potty potty, you can move potty that you previously had in the living room to the toilet. First, let them get used to the use of the toilet space, and the next step is to guide them to the auxiliary toilet seat. When it works, don't forget to praise them to your heart's content.
Once you've started to get enough use on the auxiliary toilet seat every time, you'll be graduating from Pottern. After cleaning up, you will develop the habit of using only the toilet.
What are the tips for success?
When it comes to toilet training, the three key points are not to rush, don't get mad, and praise if you do well. Since it's a training session, it's common practice to repeat things that can or can't do.
It generally takes about 3-6 months to complete toilet training. Showing frustration and disappointment can lead to the child being debilitated. Please praise and encourage us, and work together with a positive attitude.
Is praise important?
Praise is very important, but you need to be careful when praising. If a child understands that "peeing or pooping in the pot or toilet will be praised," they may try to increase the number of times they go to the bathroom more than necessary. To help you develop the correct toilet habits, praise them when you are fully venting the right amount in one go.
