The real life conversation started when Kimber joined April, Mary, and Alicia already seated. “Hey, Kimber,” Mary said, “How did things go with Jaclyn Lee?”
Kimber momentarily reflected as her eyes searched out the inquirer. “Jaclyn was potty trained in less than five hours. She picked out her favorite doll, I put her in pants and walked her through the process a couple of times, and by noon the mission was accomplished. It worked just as they said it would—one, two, three.”
Alicia eyed her skeptically. “No way, Kimber,” her tone more hopeful than incredulous. “Was it really that easy?” Her words trailed off as everyone’s attention shifted to the movement at the doorway. “Hey, Allyson,” someone called out, “How did it go with Jackson?” Allyson held up the index finger of her right hand.
“One week?” Alicia asked, her eyes now fixed on Allyson. “No,” Allyson said. “One day. Jackson was potty trained by four o’clock last Friday afternoon!”
End of story? Not quit because Kimber’s and Allyson’s success can be your success or at least something close to it. And while we can’t make any promises, we can assure you many Moms achieved their training goals within hours of starting. Most find success however, within a day and certainly within two. Or if necessary, you can stretch the process longer because the principles are not based on time, but a child’s understanding.
What makes Potty Training 1-2-3 work so effectively is the combination of right timing, right method, and right motivation.
1. Timing: This refers to leaning to recognize the optimal window for training.
2. Method: This refers to leaning the most effective ways to teach the potty training process.
3. Motivation: This refers to leaning how to sustain your toddlers’ enthusiasm about using the potty.
We provided the full DVD presentation that answers many critical questions, such as: Where do you begin Is your child old enough to interpret and properly respond to the new sensations associated with elimination? What signs do you look for? What equipment do you need? How do you keep your little person focused? How do you motivate her to use the potty instead of her diaper? Once she achieves success how do you maintain it.
The entire 30-minute presentation is available on-line or you can purchase your own DVD* with the Potty Training 1-2-3 book by clicking here. Either way, we are blessed to share this very simple but amazing method of training a toddler to stay dry and clean.
