Correct toilet methods for kindergarten children

Around the age of two, it is the right time to train your baby to use the toilet. Wait until the baby gives a signal that he wants to go to the toilet on his own, such as imitating an adult going to the toilet, wearing a diaper to pee, or having a smelly and uncomfortable poop. , can learn to take off and put on pants by themselves, etc., and the weather is getting warmer, mothers can consider letting their babies start learning to use the toilet independently.

One thing that needs special attention is not to rush or force, respect the baby's rhythm, give priority to encouragement, and use less punishment and complaining. Don't compare yourself to other people's children, or worry about your baby when you see others have stopped using diapers. Every child has his or her own rules, and as long as they are within the correct time, there is no need to rush.

When my baby was about to turn two years old, I began to tell him picture books and stories about using the toilet, instilling in him that when he grew up, he would no longer need to wear diapers and should learn to pee in a small toilet. The urine smells stinky. Let him learn from the little protagonist in the picture book.

Then I will help him choose a suitable small toilet, but I did not choose those cute animal shapes. After all, peeing and having a stinky stool requires concentration, and the small toilet in kindergarten does not have So cute, I chose the regular one, but the color will be brighter to attract the baby's attention.

When I started training, my baby was wearing pull-up pants, so if I noticed that he had signs of peeing, I would let him take off his pull-up pants and go to the small toilet to pee. At the beginning, the baby was not used to it. Within a few days, he became a little resistant and was unwilling to use the small toilet. Sitting on the small toilet could not relieve the smell. At this time, I realized that my anxiety might be affecting the baby, and I was a little aggressive. So I started to slow down my training pace. Because I have a boy, I let my father participate in the training. Let the father take the baby to the toilet together. 2-year-old children like to imitate the most and will imitate the actions of adults. Make it a fun thing for him to do and symbolize his growing up. Then praise him every time he can try to pee in the toilet, especially when he can successfully pee in the toilet, reward him, praise him, and make him proud, so that he will be motivated to continue.

After a week of adaptation, I stopped wearing diapers for my baby. And observe the time when the baby urinates, and when it is almost the same time, ask him if he needs to pee, or remind him to tell his mother if he needs to pee, or go to the small toilet to pee yourself. But don't force it. After quitting diapers for about half a month, my baby was able to go to the toilet on his own. The whole process was very smooth.

To summarize a few points:

1. Respect the child’s wishes and can only guide, not force, or rush.

2. Guide through picture books and stories, demonstrate in person, and let babies imitate. For girls, the mother will demonstrate, and for boys, the father will demonstrate.

3. Prepare tools and items suitable for the baby to go to the toilet independently to make it convenient and comfortable for the baby to go to the toilet.

4. When training your baby to use the toilet, provide him with clothes and pants that are easy for him to take off and put on.

5. Praise and celebrate every successful attempt by your baby to go to the toilet independently.

6. Be patient and don’t complain that your baby wets his pants or doesn’t use the small toilet.
