I took my 19 month old to the Bookstore to choose some Potty Books. She isn't really ready for the actual training process yet but loves all things related to the bathroom - toilets, toilet paper, my underwear, saying poo-poo & pee-pee etc... I had in mind which books I thought we'd buy - but she thought otherwise. This was THE ONLY book that she would sit and read with me. She LOVES nursey rhymes & sing-songs so this really was the perfect fit and best choice for her. She "poo-pooed" at all the others that I was prepared to buy. If your little one loves sing-song rhymes, then this is a safe, fun, and SIllY choice! I guarantee that you will laugh alot when reading the catchy lyrics - Enjoy!

...my kids love to sing songs. we have gone through this book, and the kids loved it! most toddlers love to sing, and my daycare kids as well as my own kids are no different. this book gives some wonderful songs and rhymes to use with toilet training....which, let's face it, is no fun at all! hehe

We just used this book for the first time on our "potty training day" (with the help of Potty Train Your Child in Just One Day). It is really cute for those of you who don't mind singing silly songs to your child. It helped my daughter stay on the potty long enough to have something come out. It was her favorite book of the potty day and I know we will be singing those songs again and again for some time to come until we master this new skill (and of course when child number 2 gets his turn to learn in a year). Great book to have by the potty.

After tormenting my poor firstborn with "Potty Training in a Day" (Don't do it!) I tried a more fun loving approach with boy #2. We relaxed on the little potty each morning with this book. My son is very musical and LOVED this. He sat for a long time to listen and begged for more. Some days he sat for so long he got a red ring on his bottom and I had to tell him to get off the potty...but he trained pretty easily! Yea! Better yet, when I took him potty at night before I went to bed and he was half asleep, I could always stimulate him to pee by singing a song from the book...nice tool for that too! I would highly reccommend this, but buy it new; as it hung out in our bathroom, it was dribbled on by uncoordinated little children many times! I'm looking forward to using this with boy #3.

I bought Tinkle, Tinkle, Little Tot based on the reviews from other parents, and they did not let me down. My daughter (and I) love this book. She's 20 months and just started potting training and this book is a hit while we're passing the time on the potty. She loves music anyway so she really enjoys having me sing the songs to her. I would recommend this book to any parent who is willing to sing silly songs to their child (which everyone should :).

I LOVE this book! I was originaly going to buy just one book, A Potty for Me! by Karen Katz (which by the way is excellent also!) and I spotted this one amongst the din after reading about 10 different potty books and I instantly loved it and had to get it.



I have a 3 year old whom I've been trying to potty train for the last month. I read/sang it to her as soon as we got out to the car. She sang songs about going potty all the way home! I'm very excited about that!



As a cautionary note, you may find yourself humming and singing these songs to yourself even when your toddler is napping, they are happy and catchy like that. :) You might even make up some of your own! hehe
