For many mothers, the issue of potty training is very acute. First, there are doubts about the age at which potty training should begin. Secondly, which pot is better to buy. And thirdly - how to teach a child to go to the potty in a big way? Most experts advise to start training at the age of 1, 5, because up to this age the child simply cannot control his urge to go to the toilet.

Instructions
Step 1
After all, a child will not start asking for a potty himself, if he is not taught to do it. The age at which a child should be potty trained has become a hotly debated topic in many families. Still, here are a few points to help you determine if your toddler can already be potty trained:
- The kid wakes up on a dry day after sleeping
- May stay dry for more than one to two hours
- Knows how to take off and put on panties
- Doesn't tolerate wet diapers
- Shows interest in the toilet
- Notifies you that he wants to use the toilet
Step 2
If you can name at least half of the listed items, then feel free to buy a pot. Start planting the baby regularly after a nap, try to repeat the procedure every 2 hours so that the baby gets used to the potty.
Step 3
Praise him, even if he is not going to use the pot for its intended purpose. The main thing is to help the baby make friends with this device. And also do not force the child to sit on the potty, otherwise he will develop a negative perception of this object.
Step 4
To teach your baby to go to the potty in a big way, observe his behavior, noting those moments when the child has a chair (the child calms down, grunts or pushes, ceasing to play at this moment), promptly put him on the pot. If he refuses, then you can try to put the stool in the pot and express positive emotions about this, so that the child understands that you like it when the stool is in the pot.
