We purchased the DVD in February when my daughter was 20 months old. We watched it sporadically. She really loved it! In fact, she insisted on sitting on HER potty in order to watch Elmo's Potty Time. After watching this DVD she was more interested in using the potty. It is now end of March and we have just finished successfully potty training her, in large part thanks to this video.
She loves Elmo, loved all the Elmo sequences (which are interspersed with general Sesame Street video and cartoon footage related to trying new things, growing up, listening to your body, toilet paper, washing your hands, etc.). True, it is not Elmo on the potty all the time, it starts with Elmo leaving the bathroom just having gone to the potty, then reflecting with his dad about when he was a baby and got his first potty - baby Elmo DOES sit on the potty and makes potty sounds at the end of the song - then Elmo goes to Sesame Street and interacts with his friends Baby Bear and his sister Curly, who is just learning to use the potty. Although some reviewers complained about the lack of Elmo, I'd say the DVD is about 50/50. Moreover, my daughter's FAVORITE part of the DVD is the "Dirty Diaper Blues" song, which is video footage of children running around in a backyard and a little girl uses the potty and then everyone rejoices about getting rid of diapers because soggy dirty diapers are no fun. I don't know what it is about this song, but the instant she heard it she started dancing around the living room like a maniac shaking her hands in the air and made me replay it about 5 times.
Overall, we think this video is great! We intend to continue watching it even now that she's potty trained in order to reinforce her achievement and also the importance of listening to her body, and so that she can take pride in the fact that just like Elmo she can use the potty.
The songs are cute and fun, and the characters and wonderful (as is all of Sesame Street).
My only issue that I personally didn't like, was when the baby bear in the show refers to pee pee and poo poo as wee wee and woo woo (apparently that is what bears say). I found that my toddler started calling it that because they made it fun. They do explain that everyone has different terms for going potty, but it kind of bugged me. But it isn't a super big deal at all. So 5 Stars for this one!
If you're looking for something that gives your toddler a step by step guid to what happens on the toilet, well, the other reviews are correct; this isn't the place to find that. But the topic is explored in an entertaining, positive, and non-stressful manner, which is helpful for me with my son. If it becomes a battle, he digs his heels in. Elmo makes the whole idea more fun, so he's happy to try it out. Plus, he didn't seem to have any difficulty catching on to the potty process, and identified the DVD with his own potty training without much prompting from us.
The songs and segments are cute and catchy, and my son likes to "talk" to Elmo when he talks. I'm somewhat mystified as to how anyone could find it offensive or odd, because the language is age appropriate for young children and it's helpful for the little ones to hear words they recognize.
Overall, this one was worth the money to me. I found it to be a helpful tool.

I guess there isn't much that Cookie Monster could teach kids besides eating their teeth rotten or eating their selves into a diabetic stroke!
Let me explain what I mean when I say universal, my daughter is still not old enough to understand English, but she clearly got the message from this DVD and she kept saying "I wanna go use the big girls potty like Elmo!" Obviously she will appreciate the morals and lessons more as she understands the lingo but it seems to have worked.
I have to admit that it wasn't like those many toddler programs where they drive the adults mad! It was actually a very well produced piece of work which was put together in a very fun style! Even I enjoyed it as an adult... I could appreciate how fun it would be for kids! I especially liked the part / song where kids count out the numerous words they use for poop! Kinda fun for kids... various words for poop still make older kids in the family giggle when they hear them!
Overall, a fun and very useful tool for parents who are about to potty train their kids... just think if it can work with a kid who doesn't speak English yet, then it is bound to wok wonders with English speaking kids!



My daughter enjoyed the dvd and asked for it continuously at first, at age 3 and potty trained she still asks for it sometimes. It held her attention well.
Despite the use of american words such as diaper, she understood the gist of it and asked to use the potty much more frequently after watching it.
As a parent I think it covers most aspects of potty training well at a toddlers level e.g. "accidents happen and that's OK", and the songs weren't as irritating as some out there. Running time of 30 minutes was about right.

It's a pretty good DVD - and not just for potty training as it does talk about other things and helping kids to understand they are getting older and more independant.
