So far we’ve had five out of six children go through potty training. (Graduates shown above.) After some trial and error, we’ve found the toilet seat insert to be the most useful tool. Coupled with a stool to climb on, the toilet seat insert has proven to be the gear our kids needed to get on the pot and do their business independently.

Prior to receiving this travel toilet seat insert there were vacation moments when our little guy wouldn’t go without an insert. Yes, we’ve packed one in the suitcase for cross-country travel. And on another occasion, one desperate Nanna ran to Kmart in search of one.

Imagine my surprise when I saw this snazzy toilet seat with built-in insert at the grandparents’ house!

It’s a multi-tasking toilet seat. My in-laws installed them on all their toilets when the FishKids moved back to California. It’s a brilliant idea, especially for a family with young children or grandparents with frequent young visitors. The child size seat stores itself in the lid when not in use. Not only is the insert always available for whoever might need it, but it dramatically reduces bathroom clutter.

  1. hey, we have that potty seat!! So far so good, it certainly keeps little bottoms from falling in, easy to clean, easy to install.

  2. Leave the tools alone…trust me, all of them! You just need a potty, a regular old potty…when you are in the middle of walmart/restaurant/part/friends house…you want them to be able to go with no issues of needing a “tool” or you are just training yourself to beat your head against the wall, be frustrated and clean up a LOT of messes way worse than changing a diaper…and WAIT until they are ready (ie: they request the potty, can pull down and up their own pants and get their hiney up on the potty)

    …the daycare lady/mom who has trained enough to know!

  3. We got that insert for the downstairs half bath when #2 was potty training. We also have a collection of character inserts and BB little and big potties. All of the inserts are potentially messy but it really is a nice option.

  4. That is so cool! I would have much rather had that than the insert sitting on the floor. If we have anymore kiddos I will be looking into getting one of those!

  5. I’m in the middle of potty training right now too. We saw this at a friend’s house about a year ago and decided it was worth the investment for us as well — love it!

  6. We have that seat! Unfortunately, the almost four year old prefers to use the little potty (Baby Bjorn) so I’m stuck cleaning a bowl of poop every day. Yuck. We’ve told him four year olds don’t use little potties so they’re going away on his birthday. In 11 days. Woo-hoo!

  7. I really like the Baby Bjorn “Little Potty.” It’s small, simple and portable. My 19 month old can go and sit on it herself (when she feels like it…). I try to move it around the house and yard with us because it’s a good reminder and means less interruption to play (and more likely to potty). It’s all one piece with no nooks or crannies so it is easy to clean. We’ll be taking it on a road trip with us this summer.

  8. Ooh…I love this!! I’m right in the middle of potty training now and this would be such a help.
