P is for Potty! (Sesame Street) (Lift-the-Flap) Board book – Lift the flap, July 22, 2014

My big one loves it (3) and my little one (20 months) loves to read with us and look under all the flaps.Here is a tip mommies! About a month ago, my son was 3 years and 2 months. He didn't want to go on the potty. One of his friends came over and his mom and I had a cup of coffee. She told me that when her son was 2 1/2, she took him to day care one day and they told her that the next day to bring in SIX PAIRS OF UNDIES AND SIX FULL CHANGES OF CLOTHES because there would be no more diapers. They said pull ups don't work bc the kids just think they are diapers.The trick is to make them feel the wet. It gets cold on them and they don't like it. I was scared to ruin my rugs and furniture but I figured what the heck! So, the next day, I put him in his undies that I had eagerly bought on his 2nd birthday (hahahaha). He peed in them and came to be devasted "mommy!!! I am WET!!!! I need a bath! I am STICKY!!"I put him in the bath and threw his clothes in our other tub (figured that I would let a few sets pile up and then do a load). When he got out, he got fresh undies and fresh clothes, of course. He tried to ask for a "diapee" and I explained "nope this is it from now on. You can go on the potty and stay dry or poop and pee in your clothes and get sticky and cold and wet".About an hour later, my husband walked into our bathroom and he was SITTING ON THE TOILET WITH A POOP IN THE POTTY! We wiped his butt. Told him that we were so proud (he loves this and now asks every time "are you proud?". He got to pick a treat out of the treat bucket (left over Halloween Candy, lol) and he gets to stick a sticker on my wall in my bathroom (it is shiny paint so easy to remove).And that was it. He went pee and poop all on his own. I had my hubby teach him how to push his "winkie" to shoot in the toilet. He goes pee on the big potty and poop on his little potty on the floor. He comes and gets up (carrying the poop in the removable potty bowl - which is totally gross) and he is so proud and we go in and wipe him and clean the potty after he dumps it in his big potty.We did make one mistake. He had gymnastics the 3rd day and we put him in pullups bc we didn't want him to poop on the other little gymnasts :)!!! This kind of backed us up and he was wetting his underpants a bunch of times a day for a few days but we just didn't make a big deal about it and he eventually chose to stay dry on his own. He still makes mistakes but he knows where his undies are so he will strip and throw his wet clothes in the bathtub in his bathroom (he gets embarrased I think and doesn't want to be ridiculed for a mistake - which i get so it is fine with me). and then he goes and gets his underpants from his closet shelf and puts them on. He does fine at night.I am posting this for the mommies who are buying this book because they have talked about potty training with their little one but they aren't budging. I really hope this helps!!! Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions :) [email protected] Luck and I Wish You Lots of Dry Underpants!!!! GOD Bless you :)

We’re trying to potty train my two year-old and this book sits right by his little toilet for him to read. We actually read it to him, but when he sits on the potty, he holds it like he’s reading. Elmo and all his friends encourage and are great. A fun way to encourage your child with potty training.

My almost 3 year old grandson loves this book.

This book is good, not my favorite. There are a lot of flaps to open, but when you open them most are not really necessary. However the storyline is good and I think helps get my child more used to language around using the potty. The story is about Elmo and his mommy baby sitting his cousin who is potty training, and also his baby sister who gets her diaper changed. So Elmo shows his cousin how to use the potty, his cousin has an accident, and in the end he learns to use the potty.I don’t think this one is a one and done/ all you need in one book. I will be purchasing another potty book.

Granddaughters learning to go potty

Great product. my kid loves it.

We love everything about this potty book. My son will be two next month and he asks me to read this to him every day. He had anxiety and sitting on his little potty so I stopped pushing.After reading this book EVERY day, he's started putting himself on the potty (pants on, practice) he's no longer frightened of the potty. He also likes to use his little people figurines and put them on the lift a flap potties. 💖And the verbiage is amazing, it talks about Elmo being big enough for the big boy potty, Alby is the one learning to use the potty transitioning from diapers to pull ups, and it talks about baby JoJo who's a tiny baby who's still fully in diapers.This is the best potty book. Buy it you will not regret it!❤️🚽

Got this one along with the other Elmo potty book! My toddler loves both of the books, also loves Elmo! It has helped him. I’m glad I purchased both books and the Elmo potty training stuffy with his own little potty so cute. Toddler is 2 going on 3. So 3 has helped my toddler!
