Learning to Use the Potty

Sometimes my tummy feels a little rumbly or tight. That's my body telling me it’s time to go potty. Listening to my body helps me get to the toilet in time.

I walk to the bathroom and pull down my pants and underwear. Then I sit carefully on the toilet seat. I make sure my bottom is on the seat so the pee and poop go right into the water.

When I'm all done, I take some toilet paper and wipe myself until I feel clean. I drop the paper in the toilet and push the handle. Whoosh! Everything goes away.

After I pull my pants up, the most important step is washing my hands. I use soap and warm water to scrub all the germs away. This helps me stay healthy so I can play!
