Potty training is one of those trials all parents face. Some parents start as early as 18 months to potty train their kids but I personally waited until my daughter was 2 years old to start. Here are some of the tips that worked for us.

Be patient. Patience is a must when starting potty training. You will get frustrated. Your child may not want to sit on the toilet or the potty chair. He will have accidents. It happens, just try to be patient. And know when to back off and start again later.

Accessorize. Whether it's a talking potty chair or adorable…

As odd as it may sound, letting my 2 year old go nude around the house during a few mornings helped him "feel" when he had to go potty and he was trained quickly. I put an easy-to-read kid's book about potty training in the bathroom where he read it while using the toilet (just like dad!)

These are all great tips. My 3 year old was a handful the first time we tried to potty train her the first time. She showed she understood how to go on the potty just could care less to do it all the time. We tried again a few months later & viola! Did great, I guess we just had to wait for her timing not ours :)
