Stand Up Potty Training

Finally, a dad has invented a stand-up child-size urinal for toilet training small boys. The inventor, Scott Rote, is a dad who basically toilet trained small girls but was hesitant about the upcoming battle he might go through along with his third kid a boy.

In fact, the American Academy of Pediatrics confirms the common wisdom that boys take longer to train than girls: the average toilet training age for boys is 35 months a full three months later than girls. Rote wondered if there wasn't a better way and researched potty training accessories on the market, all of which encouraged training boys in a sitting position. This appeared odd, since all of educators and practitioners say that the best way to teach babies is to "model behavior."

With this in mind, Rote, an industrial designer set out to discover a potty training accessory to train boys by allowing them to stand. Rote's invention, the Peter Potty is a familiar formed kids-size urinal, made out of lightweight hard plastic. It is not a toy, but a flushable stand-up toilet.
Quantitative research conducted independently of over 400 babies shows that boys trained in a standing position reached success months earlier. Since all of these standing boys were trained with a step stool/toilet system, the Peter Potty may make earlier success feasible because of the features of this potty training accessory. Anecdotal proof suggests perhaps as much as six months faster.

Whatever potty training accessory you may think about, look for the following characteristics:

• Appealing to kids
• Correct size kids shouldn't be able to fall in
• Simple to make use of and neat
• Stable and secure

They like the Peter Potty because:

• It's matchless and fascinating to kids.
• The real water flush can be appealing and offers a reward for success.
• There's no steps to climb, no fear of "falling in."
• The size is right, adjustable for 18 months to four years and beyond.
• It's simple to make use of and requires emptying only one time per day.
• It mimics dad's behavior and prepares kids for urinals in public facilities.

The Peter Potty also comes with hardware to secure to a wall to eliminate any fear of it tipping over. They would recommend this or keeping it in a safe spot, such as between toilet & wall to diminish the chance of spilling the contents. They also recommend emptying over one time per day for the same reason.

The Peter Potty is supported by several leading pediatricians & they expect it to quickly gain traction. If you're the kind of man who always wondered why you can't have an simple to make use of urinal with no dull chair to put down, you'll buy the Peter Potty to stimulate conversation in the house. My spouse always tries to hide it when guests come over, but I proudly keep ours in the first floor visitor bathroom so everyone knows the boys in the house are standing up for their rights, at least in the bathroom.

As for the dad in the story, Scott Rote could quickly train his son Kyle at two ½ years. The Peter Potty is sold by Amazon Products, of which Scott Rote is a founding partner.
