A wonderful conversation starter for families with this unique struggle, this book will give you the language you need to support your child and will give your child a narrative filled with body awareness and growth mindset.

Perfect Potty Training Support!

“This book was so helpful! I have three kids, my oldest 2 were very intrigued by the explanations of the physical process and had lots of questions. It was great to have talking points to show and share with my toddler (who will toilet learn soon-ish). I loved it for the exposure and appreciated having all the correct terms to utilize. Finally, the tips throughout the book and at the end were very helpful for me to be able to better support my toddler when we work together.”
