Potty Training Dolls
What Are Potty Training Dolls?
Potty training dolls are teaching tools that can help kids learn to go potty. Potty training dolls are anatomically correct dolls that wet themselves after being given water. Some dolls will alert the child with an alarm or say that they need to use the potty as a clue to the child of when to use the potty. The theory behind a potty training doll is that the child will learn by teaching the doll how to go potty. Having the child name the doll and connect with the doll will help with the potty training process. When your child has something to drink, give the child a cup and have the child give the doll a drink. Then walk the doll to the potty chair with your child. Pull the doll's "big kid" underwear down and watch the doll go potty together. Potty training dolls range in price depending on the type of doll, but there are inexpensive potty training dolls as well as fancy and expensive German potty training dolls, an Elmo potty training doll where Elmo tells the child he has to go to the potty, a Little Mommy potty training doll and other types of dolls. If a potty training doll is a little out of a parent’s budget, it’s a good idea to check with friends and relatives who have kids because they have a used potty training doll that they would give to other parents. Once a child is potty trained the child really won’t need a potty training doll any longer so other parents will probably be glad to share their child’s potty training doll.
Where Can A Parent Buy A Potty Training Doll?
Potty training dolls are easy to find on websites designed for and devoted to parents and parenting issues. Some online stores that specialize in selling potty training tools and equipment even have message boards where parents can connect with other parents and discuss effective methods of toilet training, and they can hear from other parents what potty training methods worked for them, and what methods didn’t work for them. Networking with other parents can be a great way to brainstorm about ideas, tips and tricks to help parents potty train a child. Potty training can be a difficult process but parents need to be consistent and stick with it. How well a child learns potty training can affect the rest of the child’s life.
