Potty training is a task which strikes fear into the most experienced of parents and carers. It is naturally a daunting time for both child and adult, but showing any stress will likely make your child feel anxious.
It is the first big step in many kids’ development and maturity, so making the experience as enjoyable as possible should make life much easier. Nappy expert Christie Pope has explained how parents can use new resources produced by Rascal + Friends and CoComelon to further ease the training.
There is no one size fits all approach when it comes to when you should start potty training. Some children may be ready as early as 18 months while others could learn as late as four, although the average starting age tends to be between 18 and 30 months.
