How to potty train boys

Introduction

You will learn how to successfully train your son to use the potty.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You'll Need

  • fruit loops or small items
  • colorful stickers

Steps

1

Step One

Dad, take your son to the potty and ensure that you approach the potty with excitement. Allow your son to observe you using the potty. Again show excitment. This will help him to be at ease with approaching that great white thrown called the potty.
2

Step Two

On the next trip, take some Fruit Loops and toss them in the potty. Engage your son in identifying the Fruit Loops and demonstrate target practice with the fruit loops. Your son may get so excited that he may want to try target practice also.
3

Step Three

Continue to reinforce steps 1 and 2 until you get the desired results. After each try, even if he does not urinate in the toliet, but demonstrates the action, reward your son with a colorful sticker on his forehead and make a big deal about it.

Overall Tips & Warnings

  • Ensure your son consumes a great deal of water.
  • Don't force or threaten your child to use the potty after you demonstrate.
  • You must show a great deal of patience.
  • Your son may not hit the target, he could aim on the floor. That's ok! He's trying to get the hang of it.
  • Go into this training with the understanding that this is one time, your child is calling the shots.
