So you're ready to potty train! It's time to ditch the diapers, and move on to bigger and better things. The only problem...You don't know what to do or how to do it! Well you are not alone.

Many parents ready to embark on the potty training journey are more than ready to do it, but just don't exactly know how they are going to do it!

That is why we would like to offer some knowledge on two popular and different methods of potty training this month to kick start your potty training adventure - Potty Training In One Day and Baby Potty Training.

Potty Training In One Day

Potty Training In One Day...Sounds great doesn't it! Or does it sound to good to be true? It all comes down to perspective and expectations.

Potty Training In One Day is a proven method that has successfully worked for many parents.

The method is based on 2 simple concepts:

The easiest way to learn something is to teach it.

There are consequences for behavior.

The first concept is based on the fact the best way to learn something is to teach it. We know that children learn from seeing, listening and hearing. They learn actions & attitudes and will copy things that they have seen. Based on this concept, a potty doll is used to model the appropriate potty training behaviors for your child.

The second concept is based on the fact that behavior is shaped by consequences. As a parent, you already know that children learn from the consequences of their actions and you have probably already used this as an effective parenting tool.

Baby Potty Training

So how many parents would like to get the process going before their little one is in the toddler years?

Potty training babies under one year of age is possible, in fact, some experts say you can begin potty training babies at 3 weeks old! It just means something different than the definition of potty training as an independent skill.

Potty training babies who are less than one year of age is an interdependent potty venture. It takes a dedicated and loving caregiver. This is not a potty training method for parents in a hurry, unlike the previous Potty Training In One Day Method.

This method of potty training holds many benefits; among the most benefited are baby, parents and the environment! Some main benefits are:

Helps environment by conserving/saving trees, water, petroleum and landfill space.
Cuts diaper use
Allows babies to achieve good control by 12-15 months.
Lets babies complete potty training at a relatively young age
Enhances bonding through closeness, natural communication and loving patience.
Responds to infants' natural elimination communication and timing.
Taps into first window of learning (sensitivity period) for toilet learning.
Keeps babies in touch with their own bodies.
and more!

Baby Sign Language

One special baby potty training method is teaching the baby sign language.
