Potty training does not come easy with every toddler. Some toddlers need little incentives to make them finally go on the potty. Start out easy then progress each week until the potty training is official. Moms, first you need to make a chart with each day of the month. Let the toddler help you design the chart so you can begin the talking process about the potty. Then you will need to buy some special stickers the toddler likes or cartoon characters they are into.



The very first week, you can start them by sitting on the potty. Just taking different time slots throughout the day and having them explore by sitting on the potty. If they do this just fine, then allow them to place a sticker on that day of the week. Each time they sit on the potty let them put one sticker on the chart.

The second week of training can involve actually trying to use the potty. If they actually sit on the potty and use it, then allow them to place two stickers on the chart.

The next few weeks can just be focusing on using the potty and slipping away totally from diapers.

Now moms you can make the rule to however many stickers allows a reward. I think 25 stickers is a pretty fair number to allow a new toy or whatever reward you would like to treat them with.

There you go moms, a great potty training reward system. Hopefully this will make potty training a little easier and give incentive for the little boy or girl to potty train faster.
