Toilet training is one of the
disciplines a parent may teach his child at a young age. It should, however, not be forced. The elder should look
for the signs his child is ready to potty train to make the experience
enjoyable for both the youngster and his parent.
Walk the talk
A child at age two to three years
old can already articulate the need to go to the comfort room. Encourage him to
use the potty instead of soiling or wetting his nappy. Do this by showing him
how to use the toilet every morning, before going to bed, and during bath time.
Show the step-by-step way how to remove his pants to standing upright in front
of his potty. For this kind of approach, high level of patience is encouraged.
Make it fun
Kids love to play. Make every
trip to the comfort room seems like a fun activity to do. After each successful
morning habit, let your little one use the Brondell Swash. He will
surely love the sensation of the bidet sprayer and will always look forward to
using it after his every pee and poo.
Commit to train
In potty training a toddler, you
need to prepare yourself, too. You should devote time to your baby's toilet
training. It isn't something you decide to do today only to forget about in the
coming days.
Use codes or phrases
If your toddler finds it
challenging to utter in complete sentences, teach him the right words to use.
"Pee" and "poo" are clear terms he can use to communicate
the need to use the toilet.
It would help, too, if you dress
your tot in clothes that are easy to remove and pull in cases he needs to go to
the comfort room alone.
Offer praises
Whenever your child successfully
used the potty, give him a high five or thumbs up. If he unintentionally soiled
his diaper or nappy, do not threaten or punish him. Give support and
encouragement instead.
Value of Toilet Training to a Child's Health
Toilet training is a family
affair. Encourage your family members to
give daily attention to your little one. Your toddler is more likely to show
eagerness to learn when his family is giving him the time and affection.
The most prudent way to promote the use of a potty to a toddler is to let him know
its advantages. Emphasize its health benefits. Tell him that it is more
comfortable to move with clean underwear or diaper. He will not also wake up irritated because of
wet underwear
or even a damp mattress.
Stress out, too, he will no longer suffer from skin irritation because
he has no soggy diaper
to deal with. Mention to him also that he can clean himself better whenever he
uses the toilet. Another possible encouragement is to let him know that he is
growing up as a responsible and healthy big child just like his parents and
older siblings because he can now take care of himself.
