Here are ten tips for potty training for pre-schoolers:

1. Determine if your child is ready:

Look for signs that your child is ready to start potty training, such as staying dry for longer periods of time, showing interest in using the bathroom, and being able to communicate when they need to go. Avoid starting potty training during major transitions or changes.

2. Start with underwear: 

Gradually transition from diapers to underwear to help your child become more aware of when they need to go to the bathroom.

3. Set a schedule: 

Establish a routine for going to the bathroom, such as after meals and naps.

4. Encourage independence: 

Encourage your child to take an active role in the process by letting them pick out their own underwear and helping them with tasks like pulling down their pants and wiping themselves.

5. Use positive reinforcement: 

Praise and reward your child for successful potty trips and try to stay positive and patient when there are accidents.

6. Make it fun: 

Try using stickers, toys, or books as incentives to encourage your child to use the potty. You can also make a game out of it by having your child aim for a target or adding food colouring to the water to see if it changes colour.

7. Follow your child's lead: 

Let your child dictate the pace of potty training, and don't force them to use the potty if they're not ready.

8. Use the right equipment: 

Choose a child-sized toilet or potty seat that is comfortable and easy for your child to use.

9. Be patient: 

Potty training can take time and there will be accidents along the way. Don't get frustrated and remember to be patient and encouraging.

10. Seek support: 

If you're having trouble with potty training, don't be afraid to seek support from friends, family, or a healthcare professional. They can offer helpful tips and guidance.
