Potty Train your child, guaranteed to work!!!

This article will teach you how to potty train your child.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

posterboard
a marker
stickers
some dollar store toys

Step 1

Use the posterboard and write the words either "big boy" or "big girl" in bubble letters. You can use different colors to make it more interesting.
Step 2

Explain to your child that everytime he or she tries to go to the bathroom they get to put a sticker on one of the letters. And each time a letter is filled they get a "surprise".
Step 3

Each time your child goes to the bathroom get out some special stickers and let them choose which one they want to put on.
Step 4

After your child puts the sticker on praise them, and after a letter is completed give them a toy picked out from the dollar store.

Tips & Warnings

I tried this and it works great!
You can try putting fruit loops in the toilet for boys to aim, but that didnt work for me.
By the time my son had filled out the word "BIG" he was totally potty trained. He kept his poster up for months to show people.

on 6/24/2008 There are things you can buy that are special made to help train boys to aim. You place them in the toilet. I think you can buy them online. Try a google on Wee target or Toilet Targets. Also I read somewhere that some dayschools put blue food coloring in the water and when the boys pee it turns the water green. Aparently little boys get a real kick out of that!
