Many parents wait anxiously the moment when their child will learn to use the toilet and when they will forget pampers. In fact teaching a child to use the toilet is not that hard as long as you know the secrets of potty training.

In essence there are several easy steps that any parent should follow to succeed in potty training. The first thing is t see if the child is ready. Obviously there is no point to push a child to do something when it is not ready for it. Some of the signs that show a child is ready to be potty trained when can pull its pants up and down, imitates others' bathroom habits, makes a physical demonstration when she's having a bowel movement, dislikes the feeling of being in a dirty nappy.

When you notice any of the above, get the right equipment. A child sized potty or a toilet seat will be enough. Now you can create the routine for your child. Make him seat on the potty chair even fully clothed at least once a day. You can do this in the times of the day when you have noticed he has a bowel movement.

After a while you will see that this will start to give results. The most important thing to remember at this stage is not to push your child or scare it in any other way. Instead encourage him and even prize him when he gets the job done into the potty chair.

After you teach your child to use the potty chair during the day start teaching him what to do during the night. In general night training is much more difficult and it may take several months to be taught. A trick that many parents do is not to allow their child has many liquids before bedtime. Tell him to wake you up if he wakes up so that you can help him use the potty and leave the potty chair near the bed.

Well that is it! Little by little your child will maser his new ability and will become fully independent.
