"Hi, my name is Shelby on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to show you how to potty train today. It's really good to take your child to the restroom as frequently as possible because in the beginning of potty training they don't know when they have to go and when they do they're going to just go in their clothes. They don't know how to hold it like you and I, eventually they're going to get to the point where they're going to but when they're really small they get really into what they're doing. If they're playing they don't want to stop playing, it's better to just drag them out of whatever they're doing and say, "it's time to go to the restroom" and they're going to go."
