Every parent looks forward to the day they will not have to change diapers any longer. No more carrying around a large bulky diaper bag, nor having to find a restroom with a baby changing station. When the time comes to start teaching your toddler how to use the potty, the task does not have to be a difficult one. Follow these tips on how to quickly and easily potty train your toddler.

Encourage Your Toddler

When your toddler uses the potty successfully, show your approval by clapping and cheering. Seeing that you are happy will encourage your toddler to use the potty again. Also, give your toddler a hug and tell them how proud you are of their accomplishment.

Get Rid Of The Unused Diapers

Give away any unused diapers so that you will not be tempted to continue using them. If your toddler has an accident in their underpants, they will be able to feel the wetness more than they would in diapers. The uncomfortable feeling of wet underpants will help to encourage your toddler to use the potty more often.

Set A Potty Schedule

Encourage your toddler to use the potty by setting a schedule for them and then stick to it. Take them to the potty in the morning when they wake up and at night before they go to bed. Also, take them to the bathroom every hour throughout the day. This will help your toddler to associate how it feels when they need to use the potty.

Make A Potty Chart

Make potty training more interesting for your toddler by creating a potty chart. Buy some reward stickers and let your toddler put one on the chart each time they use the potty.

Potty training can be a happy experience for parent and toddler.
