I Can Go Potty

Needless to say, we are at a time in our lives when we have a number of potty training books around the house, and we find this one straightforward and appealing. It features a little Muppet boy who has been learning to use a potty seat. The youngster talks about how happy he is to be a big boy and wear pants and go potty by himself. He interrupts play, takes down his pants, sits on the potty and "goes", wipes, flushes, pulls up his pants and washes his hands before going back to play, where his friend and toys are waiting to pick up where they left off.The book features a potty seat that sits on the big toilet rather than a free-standing potty chair, and no phrases for defecation or urination are used. A good choice for families in this interesting phase of development.

Both my daughter and son loved this book while they were getting used to the potty. They loved it so much that they wanted to read it all the time - so I kept it in the bathroom and everytime I read it to them, I had them sit on the potty. Most of the time they "used" the potty at the same time. I highly recommend this book!

We keep this book in the bathroom for our almost 2 year old to occupy his time while toilet training. I especially appreciate that this book demonstrates baby Kermit using the big toilet with a removable potty seat rather than a toddler's potty chair, which seems to be the approach in other "potty" books.

I have been working with my son in toilet training the last few weeks and this book hits the spot. It is real simple, but goes over each step of toilet training clearly. Also, using a frog makes it good for a boy or girl. It evens suggest not using too much toilet paper! I would recommend this book highly because it describes the procedure in a language geared to toddlers.

I've only had I Can Go Potty in my son's library for a few days, but we love it already! My son asks to have the book read to him every night. Not only that, but my 34 month old son who has never shown any interest in going to the potty, has gone three times in the last two days! It may be just a coincidence, but, just in case, I'm going to buy some more books!
