Make potty time a routine for your child. The goal is for your child to eventually go potty by themselves without being prompted.

How to create a schedule:

• Identify 2-3 times during the day when you will put your child on the potty.
• Have your child sit for at least 5 minutes each time. Sit with them and either sing songs or read books to encourage them to stay seated. If they refuse to sit on the potty, don't force them or you risk turning potty training into a negative experience for them.
• Try to pick times when your child would usually wet or soil their diaper. E.g.) First thing in the morning, after naps, before bed, etc.
• Incorporate potty time into your child's bedtime routine. After they brush their teeth, put them on the potty before getting into bed.
