What is a travel potty or seat?
It is essentially a potty which is more portable than a standard potty that you would buy for home use.
It is usually easy to carry or comes in a case which you can take with you when you are out.
Alternatively you can take a potty seat which clips over the top of a toilet seat to make it easier for a little one to use a public toilet.
Travel potties can help support your toddler’s potty training and give you the confidence to carry on with it even when you are on the go or travelling.
Tips for using a portable potty or seat
- Get into the habit of taking a travel potty with you everywhere so that you are not caught short
- Let your little one use the travel potty or seat at home first so they are used to it before you venture out with it
- Don’t worry about using the odd nappy or pull-up in certain situations where you can’t really carry a potty around, like say a theme park
- Pack spare clothes just incase. Accidents will happen
- If you are potty training, let everyone who looks after your child know so that they can help with the process
- Regularly check in with your toddler and ask them if they need to go to the toilet. A little reminder should they need to
- Try and keep to a routine
