Potty Training Dolls

Potty training is an inevitable and unsettling part of child rearing. Whatever way you look at there comes a time when your child has to stop wearing diapers and learn to use the potty and eventually the toilet.

Time was when potty training involved a potty, some training pants and a lot of patience. Nowadays there are all kinds of aids to help you in toilet training your child. There are musical potty seats, potty seats that help your child to learn while they are being toilet trained and all sorts of training reminders and help.

One of the latest toilet training aids to become popular is the potty training dolls. Some of these potty training dolls have an internal bladder and when you press the doll’s tummy they will pee. Some experts believe that having an anatomically correct potty training doll that pees will help your child in using the potty – this is because the child first teaches the doll how to use the potty. If you want to use this method with your child then you will need a potty training doll that wets, a potty chair, trainer pants, and plenty of liquid for your child and the doll to drink. The idea of the liquid is to ensure that the doll will wet and that the child will also have a full bladder and want to pee.

Start with sitting the doll on the potty and pressing its tummy or getting your child to do so, then get your child to sit on the potty. Your child may not want to use the potty yet but sitting on it will get the child used to the potty. If you can’t afford some of the prices of these toilet training aids then it is possible to get a used toilet training doll on ebay – just ensure that the one you are buying wets as these dolls are more effective in teaching your child to use the potty.

If you have a good look around your local baby and toddler stores, or try searching the internet, you should be able to find an inexpensive potty training doll – the problem is that the less expensive dolls may not wet. The only way to deal with this is to try and get hold of a potty training doll that wets – perhaps a friend has one that they no longer use. A potty training doll that wets will make training your child much easier.
