AW- Potty time!
daisyterp
member
DD is learning how to use the potty- basically by herself- we bought 4 of the cheapie cheap plastic potties @ Ikea and I always make sure to have on in the room she's in (or outside on the deck if she's playing there) and she just goes and does her thing w/o us saying much or asking her. When I set a potty up in a new spot, or when we start a new activity I just ask her "if you have go to pee or poo where are you going to go?" and she says in the potty and I ask her what color potty (we have a red, a white and 2 green potties) so that way she identifies the potty and knows where it is in the room.
Oh- and she's basically been running around naked during this process- but hey- it's working- I am not going to argue!

Re: AW- Potty time!
Go Eloise! Maybe she'll be ahead of that little boy you watch before you start watching him again!
The older boy is out of diapers- but he uses the potty seat on the regular toilet vs small potty- so I have to put him on the toilet for him to go- and he doesn't take his pants on and off himself (which is why we are doing naked potty time for now- she can do most of her pants/training pants herself, but I figure it's probably easier for her to have success and feel good about herself, rather than pee herself because she doesn't make it in time, etc.
