Potty training

Being potty-trained during the day means that a child can feel urges, recognize them and go to the potty or toilet on time. It is also about being able to hold it up until a good time. The child does simple things himself, such as washing clothes and hands. Then it goes on with its day.

Being potty-trained is more than just staying dry; it's also about independence. Nighttime potty training often comes later than daytime, sometimes years later.

Here's how you recognize a potty-trained child: a child says "I have to pee," stops playing, walks to the toilet, pulls down pants, pees in potty or toilet, wipes up, pulls up pants again, flushes and washes hands, sometimes with a little help. And the occasional accident still happens, as long as it doesn't happen every day it's just part of it!
