How do you potty train?

Question

and how do you know your child is ready to start?

Answer 1

Using a sticker chart with my niece worked really well. Every time she would use the potty she got to pick out a sticker and put it on her chart. She was really excited about it, and made she to make a big deal about it when she went. Hope that helps :)

Answer 2

theyre ready when they can tell you they have to go to the bathroom or they go to a room by themselves when they go to the bathroom

Answer 3

it is different with every child.  My oldest son, now six was potty trained at 18 months old, however my youngest son now 29 months still isn't potty trained and shows NO interest.  Good Luck!

Answer 4

They have to be READY.....you can encourage them a whole bunch but until their brain catches on that they can control their bladder muscle...its not going to happen.  I potty trained twins about a year ago.....and we practiced a lot from the time they turned two....then a week before their 3rd birthday it just clicked and they understood!  They know when they are ready =)
