I found that having a consistent routine was vital during potty training my child. Taking him to the toilet every hour and straight after meals helped him get into the habit of going at regular intervals. We also celebrated his success, which encouraged him to keep trying. Celebrations at home were low-key but exciting for him - a small prize or a fun sticker worked wonders!Share your tips and advice that helped during your potty training journey!

My first kid took forever to toilet train - it felt like we tried everything under the sun! But what finally worked was a sticker chart. We went to the dollar store and picked out some small toys that he got to choose when he earned a certain number of stickers. He was so motivated by the toys that it only took a couple of accidents before he got the hang of it. Every time he succeeded, he got a sticker and lots of praise! Now, my boy is so proud every time he earns a new toy! It's definitely a journey with many setbacks, but you'll get there eventually!Share your tips and advice that helped during your potty training journey!

Yes! I found consistency key too - with two young ones, it's chaotic but managed by keeping a close eye on timing. For incentives, my little one loves being outdoors, so I involved her by taking her to the park each time she successfully used the potty.
