"Hi, my name is Shelby on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to show you how to potty train today. In this segment I'm going to discuss fun terms to use with your child when potty training. Some good terms to use are: let's go have fun in the potty, or let's go pee pee or wee wee in the potty. Use language that they use. Get down on their level. Talk like you're a 3 year old if you're going through potty training. It makes it more fun for your child and they get really into it when they're potty training. Some words you don't want to use though are: icky, smelly, negative words. Because everyone poops in the potty and you want to make that clear to your child that it's a normal thing that mommy and daddy do, that your brother does or your sister, everyone does it it's normal."
