Admit it: we never suspicion you’d be shopping a video with a word potty in a title. But it’s been months, as well as whilst Junior seems to love his potty, he doesn’t essentially do anything in it… More >>

Having twins boys, everything was a challenge. Potty training being no exception. After trying for what seemed like forever and the twins being three years old, I was ready to give up. I purchased this video as a last resort, played it and in no time at all I had successfully potty trained my twins. I used this tape with my next child and had successfully potty trained him before the age of two!! I didn’t need to push my children to learn, it just came naturally, with them wanting to mimic the video. It is a cute tape with such a catchy song,(which we sang all over town) that my children continued to watch it even after they had mastered Potty Training! There is also a parent section that has some great information and reasuring words of encouragement.I will definetly be using this tape on the grandkids!! Bring them on…..

We had not read the book before purchasing this video. The babies in the video are very, very young, as in hardly up on their feet, let alone using the potty. They start with The Potty Song, the story is short and uses silly words like wee-wee and then they end with The Potty Song. The Potty Song is back to the babies playing and not making much sense. If your child is very young and uses the potty, they might relate but for my “big kid” (2 1/2 years old) this wee-lly wee-lly stunk!

A friend gave me this video hoping it would help train my reluctant 3-year-old. While he was very interested in the tape and even bopped to the song, it did not help him overall.
One, the children looked younger than 2 years old! So he did not relate on that level and kept referring to the children in the video as “babies” and “cute little babies!”
Two, the potty used is not the type of potty commonly used in the United States (at least in my opinion.) The part about what a potty is “not” for became redundant and boring for a child who didn’t relate to that “what is it?” to begin with.
Three, the only reference to a true toilet was when Mommy poured the wee-wee into the toilet.
On the other hand, I read negative reviews about seeing the ‘hole’ in the cartoon fanny of Joshua. Well, I want raise my child to know his body parts — as a child well-versed in their own body and its functions is statistically less likely to be targeted by a sex offender. I didn’t think this reference was a big deal, and it even helped me teach my child about that particular body function.
I would only recommend this tape to those who are training children in the 1 to 2 year old range and using a similar potty. (It looks like a molded-to-underside bowl.)

This is a terrific video for younger toddlers learning to use the potty. The story about Joshua and his potty is entertaining and shows kids just what to do. The potty song at the end is terrific with it’s pictures of actual toddlers on their potties. We are still singing it at our house!

My first son loved for us to read the book to him. Then when my second son was born I knew that I had to find the video. With our second child potty training has been very difficult. But thanks to this video, I think that it has calmed some fears and some discomforts that he had about using the potty. I highly recommend this to anyone with small children!!
