Good advice for all parents re toilet training.

There is no set age for when to stop using nappies, but children usually show signs they are ready to use a toilet or a potty between 18 months and 3 years.
Signs that your child may be ready:
🚽Your child notices when they are doing a wee or poo, or when they think they need the toilet.
🚽If they are able to sit down on a toilet or potty and get back up again.
🚽You notice that your child stays dry for 1-2 hours or longer.
Remember all children are different in learning this new skill, so be patient. Your child may be really quick to learn or take a little longer. This is normal.

“ Look at the differences between a typical preschool child’s hand (left) and a typical 7 year old hand (right). Want to know why a preschool aged child isn’t able to write yet? This is why! Their hands are still developing and are not fully formed. So what should they be doing to support this? PLAY!! Playdough, colouring, cutting, gluing, playing outside, digging in dirt, sensory play, dress up play, science experiments, beading, puzzles, throwing balls, etc.
.
All of these things help their hands develop. When they are physically ready to write, they will! No need to rush them, they will show you when they are ready.” ❤️
