Potty Training Little Ones Book by Galloping Minds
Today I would like to introduce you to the company called Galloping Minds who sells a variety of DVD’s, Books and Flash Cards that are all geared towards babies, preschoolers and toddlers and for both boys and girls.
My Review: The generous folks over at Galloping Minds sent me their hardcover book called “Potty Training Little Ones” which sells for $14.99 each. This is a great book for parents to use as a “tool” to help potty train their child. The front of the book has a few potty training tips and then it goes into the “story” of this little girl learning to use the potty. The book is designed in 2-page spreads…so the page on the right is in full color and the matching page on the left is in black & white is a coloring page. As your child sits and reads this book they can color on the matching pages. In the back of the book is a 2 page potty chart and each time that your child uses the potty, they can color in one of the squares or you can purchase a pack of stickers and stick them onto the squares to track their progress.
The story is about a little girl named Anna who is learning how to use the potty and her mother takes her shopping to let her pick out her own big girl potty. Once home, her mommy shows her how to sit on the potty to go poo & pee, how to wipe afterwards and how to wash & clean her hands when she is finished. As she is learning her mom praises her for her accomplishments and she downplays her accidents and constantly encourages Anna to go onto the potty successfully. (sorry about my camera flash wiping out some of the photos).
We are potty training a 26 month old girl and since receiving the book we have read it to her several times. She loves to sit on her “big girl potty” and have us read the book to her and at times she will sit on her big girl potty and color on some of the coloring pages. I love this simple easy to read storyline which is at a 2 year olds level and I love that the book has thicker pages to help prevent tearing by little toddler hands. I think the illustrations in the book are just adorable and go really well with the storyline.
Overall Impression: We love this potty training book! Unlike other books I have seen, this one is totally geared at the 2-3 year old and is simple enough for them to understand. (unlike other books that are way beyond a 2 year olds comprehension, this one is right on target!). We give this Potty Training Little Ones book by Galloping Minds a huge 2 thumbs up! You can purchase this book directly from their web site for only $14.99.
