Which Potty Chair You Need For Potty Training?
Janice Caller
Tool is a good word for the items you’ll need to pull this job
off right! The first thing you should consider buying is a
potty chair. You can let your child tag along for the ride.
It’s important for your child to feel like the potty chair
belongs to him. He’ll certainly feel that way if your kid is
like mine. Let him pick it out. You’ll be glad you did.
Types of Potty Chairs
Can you believe that there are two types of potties? I know.
That is unfair, considering we only have one! The potty chair
that resembles a little toilet is the most expensive. It costs
anywhere from $20.00 to $30.00. It makes it easy for toddlers
to sit down and get up. Plus, the lid gives your child good
back support. It is a big favorite for a lot of parents.
Parents like it so much because the potty chair stands alone on
a base. Some of these potties are decorated with dolls, trucks
or bunnies. There are also some potty’s that play music. I like
this type of potty because it is easy to use. You can also take
it with you. Best of all, it has a lid so you can keep it
closed on those good days.
The second type of potty-chair isn’t really a chair at all. I
like to think of it as a potty cushion. It fits snug over a
full size toilet. The seat cushion is like for a little behind.
It is a great transition either before or after potty training.
There’s no need for cleanup the hole is also smaller so you
don’t have to worry about your little one falling in.
In a nutshell, here are the pros and cons of each types of
portable potty.
The Stand Alone Potty
• Pros: Easy for toddler to use
• Cons: You have to dump
The Musical Potty
• Pros: Toddlers like the sounds
• Cons: You have to dump
The Potty Cushion
• Pros: You don’t have to dump
• Cons: Sits Up High on Toilet
If the potty cushion is your choice, then you’ll want to buy a
step stool to go along with it. The stool helps toddlers climb
on and off the toilet. Okay, so you have some idea of the kinds
of potty chairs that are out there, just choose which the best
is for your children.
