Mommy got me a brand new potty… But I’m not ready yet… I want to run and play…. Uh-oh, I peed in my pants…. But Mommy says, “That’s okay!”… Children will love following along and lifting the flaps to see the child play, sit on thepotty, eat, sit on the potty, sleep, and then sit on the potty…until finally there is success. Written from a child’s point of view, this new potty-training book will help children join in the final refrain, “I’m so proud of me!”

Both of my children (now 18 mtnhos and 3) learned many body parts from this book, which encourages children to lift the flaps and search for babies’ hands (under the bubbles!), toes, and even belly buttons. The illustrations are colorful and simple, which is very engaging for a 12-18 month old. I also love the focus on learning spatial relations (behind, under, etc.), and the great fine-motor skill practice that comes from lifting these oversized flaps. The flaps are as sturdy as most, but they will eventually separate from the book, o keep your wide scotch tape handy!
