From photo to story
Potty training
The potty becomes something familiar
Potty training is a big step for a toddler. A book introduces the subject calmly: your child sees what happens, and you talk about it at a moment when nothing has to happen yet.
Because your child plays the lead, the recognition is strongest. You decide how the story goes: let the plushie practise first, include an accident that turns out to be fine, or head straight for the potty.
- Introduce the potty without pressure
- Read together about practising and accidents
- Celebrate the first pee as a milestone

Frequently asked questions
Questions about a potty training book
What age is the book for?
Most parents create the book around the time their toddler starts practising, often between 2 and 3.5 years old. The story is in rhyme and short enough to read together in one sitting.
Will a book potty train my child?
No, a book will not potty train your child. It does make the subject more familiar, so it becomes easier to talk about it together at a calm moment.
Can I decide what happens in the story?
Yes. You describe how practising is going at home. Whether you want to show that it sometimes goes wrong and that this is fine, or that your child first discovers what a potty even is, both are possible.
Can the stuffed animal join the story?
Yes. You can add a sidekick, for example the favourite plushie, a brother or sister, or a parent. In our example the dinosaur plushie practises on the potty first.
