1. Toilet Training For Boys - 10 Useful Tips
When it comes to toilet training a boy, there are many ways to
make the transition much easier on the both of you. The first step
is determining when your son is ready to begin. If you force the
training, it will take much longer to finish.
Boys tend to take longer than girls. They might be ready anywhere
from 18 months to 4 years old. Boys with older siblings are more
likely to learn faster. Be aware of your son’s readiness and do not
compare to other boys his age.
Each child is different. Do not attempt the start of toilet training
until your child is open to the idea. Once he is ready, here are some
steps that will help you get off to the best start in your toilet
training adventure.
1. To begin with, buy a potty chair. A child size potty is less
intimidating than a full sized one. Children are sometimes fearful
they will fall off or into a toilet. One their own size is easier to get
on and off of and the mobility makes it easier to move around. You
could also use a training seat designed to attach to the toilet seat,
but you will need a footstep to help you son get on and off of it.
2. Let your son follow their Dad, an uncle, or a male role model into
the bathroom. Boys learn by imitating them and they can help
show how a boy uses the bathroom.
3. Have a potty shopping day. Let him choose his own potty chair.
This may be a good time to let him pick out his own big boy
underwear also. Talk about doing this in advance to build up
excitement about the day. Make the whole experience special.
4. Be consistent. If your child spends time with a babysitter,
daycare or relatives, you will need to make sure everyone is on the

5. Don’t push your child too early. "Accidents" will happen. Consider
using diapers or pull up pants at night or on road trips for a time
until they are staying dry.
6. A child often poos and pees at the same time. Start by letting
your son sit on the potty until he recognizes that both belong in the
toilet. When he is comfortable, try standing up and letting him
learn to aim. Cleaning up a few messes is expected!
7. Watch for signs that indicate his need to go, like wriggling,
clutching himself, hopping up and down. Telling him it’s potty time
will work better than simply asking him.
8. Do not make a big deal out of every trip to the bathroom. This
often makes a child feel self conscious when they do have an
accident.
9. When an accident happens, and it will, remain calm. Nothing
makes a child feel worse than being punished for wetting his pants.
It will also more than likely give them a setback in their progress.
10. Boys are often later than girls in remaining dry at night and can
still be in diapers or pull ups at 4 years. Don’t despair or try to
pressure them. A power struggle will just make the whole process
more difficult for you both.
Once your boy has been completely trained both days and nights,
acknowledge to them that they have achieved a lot. Do something
special to commemorate the event.
