Preparation!

I am in life a planner and a compulsive list-maker. I have spent hours googling, reading blogs, watching youtube videos, reading library books and ordering dvd’s on potty-training. All this when most experts say that there is nothing I can really do to “make” Tegan learn to use the potty it will all come down to whether she is emotionally and physically ready to be potty-trained.  But having a list makes me feel like I have small sense of control over the process so here it is....

Potty-Training List:

Things to entertain her on the potty: flashcards, new book, new small toys
Ways to keep sitting on the potty fun: play, read books, sing songs, watch youtube videos
Rewards for going on the potty: mini-jelly beans, praise/high fives, stickers, freezes
To Buy: waterproof bed mattress, foam soap, spot remover
To have ready: rinsing pail
