@Kristy,
Training my son was actually a lot easier than my daughter. When he was ready, we let him pick out a potty seat to go on the big potty (he felt more comfortable then on the regular seat). Standing came after he got the hang of going on the potty all the time. He also picked out a pack of undies and I purchased a potty book for boys.
We also rewarded him for going on the potty. My son had m&m’ s and my daughter chocolate chips. They actually had to go for the reward not just sit; otherwise you’ll never get them out of the bathroom!
Rewards and praise (he so wanted to be a “big” boy) worked wonders. That and biting my tongue during all the accidents.

That is the most wonderful thing ever! My first was also a boy, so walking into a public restroom and saying” don’t touch anything” was the worst of it. Then came the girl. Ugg! She started training a couple months ago (very stubborn child). It never fails that she has to go potty when we get to a store, even though she went at the house 10 minutes ago. I’ll be looking at that seat!

What a neat idea! I was wondering how you tote it around… the bag makes it all neat and clean. Very useful and clever (wish I’d had one when I was potty training our girls!).

I’d love to hear more tips from you on potty training boys. Our son is almost 2 and he’s showing interest in sitting on the “big boy potty chair”. I’ve always heard that potty training boys is SO different from girls… guess I’m about to find out!

@Trixie, to be honest, I've used it myself! LOL. It's a little tricky, but desperate times call for desperate measures.

Do they make these for adults? I cannot stand to use a public restroom — they are usually so ICKY and dirty!

I have that same seat and used it for my daughter. It makes the public restroom seem a bit more kid friendly (and not so gross)

I’m planning to begin the potty training process with my daughter in the next month or so. This is a great idea! And doesn’t cost much… even better!

the other day I found a disposable potty chair, it must have been cardboard because you could easily slip it into your purse. i almost bought it just to show off. disposable potty chairs

This seems so nice! I will have to get one for my baby girl when she potty trains. Years ago, when I potty trained my now-9 year old, I had to hold her and do the hover technique. It was not easy or fun! haha!
