Ok so you are probably counting down the days when it's finally time to rid your child of those expensive diapers.
Today I provide 7 of toilet training tips to help ease the pain of this process.
Actually the process is quit painless if you prepare yourself a head of time.

1. Prepare yourself - Getting yourself prepared for what will appear to be a battle at first will put you far ahead of the other parents.
   You need to prepare for resistance from your child and be prepared to clean up after accidents.
   
2. Use bribes - The use of bribes to getting our children to do things have been in use for hundreds of years.
   Get some small candies like M & M's, Skittles or mini candy bars, and tell them they can have some each time they use the potty.
   
3. Target Practice - If you are potty training a boy, put some pieces of cereal in the toilet and play a little target practice.
   Chances are your son will forget that he is actually using the potty and see it as a game.
   
4. Praise Praise Praise - The more praise you give your child the better.
   Children feed off positive enforcement and love when they make their parents proud.
   
5. The Use of Stickers - Kids love stickers, and most kids love to put stickers on their clothes.
   Each time your child uses the potty let him pick out a sticker and put on his outfit.
   At the end of the day he can show off to his parents, grandparents or other family and friends how many times he used the potty.
   
6. Patience - Having patience is a huge part of toilet training your toddler.
   You need to be mentally prepared and realize that it's not going to happen over night, so practice your patience.
   
7. Use the right equipment - Most kids will find the big potty a little intimidating, so I highly recommend the use of potty chair, it is just the right size for them.
