How to accustom a young child to a pot?

Sooner or later, every mother has a question about how to accustom her child to a pot. I want this to take away as little effort and nerves as possible. Perhaps you heard from friends that it is very hard work to teach a child to a pot. But in fact, everything is simple. You just need to watch your baby, wait for the moment when he begins to realize his actions.

Begin to teach the child to the pot you need to start at 12 - 18 months, it is at this age that the baby begins to fully realize his actions. First, teach him to sit on the pot for an introduction. At this age, the example of other young children or parents works well.

Let the child see how adults and peers go to the toilet, and he will probably want to imitate others. Show the baby his dirty diaper, explain that when he croaks or pisses, his ass gets dirty and smells bad.

Here are a few tips to help you teach your little child to a pot:
- let the pot is within sight of the child - in his room or living room, let him play with him;
- If the baby got to go to the pot, be sure to praise him, stroke the head, then the child will have pleasant emotions associated with the use of the pot. Sincerely rejoice at his success, then he will want to please you again.
- if the child always went to diapers, they will have to be removed. The kid should study his body, see how he pisses and coughs.
- Teach your child to go to the toilet not only at home, but also in various other places: on the street, he can write under the bush, and on a visit to the toilet.
- that the child is not written at night, do not give him to drink a lot of water for the night. Teach him to visit the toilet before going to bed and immediately after awakening.

When accustoming a small child to a pot, in no case should you scold him for making an unintentional puddle. Remind him of the pot, but do not force him to sit on him. If you constantly make fun of and criticize the baby, for his mistakes, he will be afraid to walk on the pot, so as not to provoke your discontent, and it will be more difficult to accustom him to the pot. If the child does not want to sit on the pot, do not force him to do it. Try to try again in a few days, and also try to find out what he does not like the pot: maybe it's uncomfortable or too cold.

In any case, do not wait for an instant result. Be calm, avoid irritation and despair. Remember that if promotion does not help, the punishment will only worsen the matter. Keep watching the baby. After a while everything will turn out all right!
