About the creators of the Kit:
'The Gentle Potty Training Guide: What I Wish the Experts Had Told Me' was developed by a licensed mental health therapist in conjunction with a preschool teacher of 25+ years. The guide was created in response to traumatization experienced from trying a 3-day bottomless method without adequate preparation. Children deserve to be treated with patience, kind nurturing, and sensitivity while learning this critical new skill. Our Gentle Potty Training Starter Kit is an incredible potty training tool for children with sensory issues, ASD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, or even children with speech delays. It was also created because who has time to read an entire book, parents need the cliff notes!
About the Table: The PottyFriend Training Table is the perfect addition to beginning training as it's only compatible with toddler potties. This table is critical to avoiding power-struggles with your toddler, giving them privacy in the early stages, and prolonging their time on the potty (long enough to experience release).
About Potty Release Wands:
Q. What is the science behind the wands? Help your child relax quickly through gentle distraction with the help of hand-held vibrations. Activate the parasympathetic nervous system faster to promote relaxed release. Quicker, smarter training because potty training is a challenging time.....for everyone. Package includes two sensory wands--recommendation is to have one wand for each hand. One AAA battery required for each wand. FAQs about Potty Release Wands Q. Will my child become dependent on the wand in order to release? A. A comparable example would be like learning to ride a bike. A child starts off with training wheels but once they get riding successfully several times, they realize that they don’t actually need the training wheels and will happily ride without. The wand may only be used for a short time, but when you’re in the middle of potty training and it's a highly stressful time, every hour and minute you save helps immensely. In addition, the wands have an additional LED light feature and can be enjoyed by kids of all ages post-potty training! Q. Who developed the wands? A. The wands were created by a Certified EMDR Therapist (Trauma/PTSD specialty) that understands how the nervous system both inhibits and promotes resolution toward a particular goal. In this case, it’s potty release/potty training. Q. What stage of potty training are these wands ideal for? A. It’s ideal to begin training with the wands to override the fight or flight mode of the nervous system as early into training as possible. But these wands can also help with a child who has regressed, a child who is having intermittent successes but seems reluctant or afraid to release, and especially for children who have experienced withholding trauma or a traumatic experience with potty training at any point in time. Q. What about using a laxative, wouldn't it provide the same result? A. Using laxative comes with more risks. You risk not knowing when stool will actually come out/getting to the potty in time; you also risk creating a traumatizing experience for your child. Q. When should I introduce my child to the wands? A. Our recommendation is to wait until you know your child has something to release (and is sitting on the potty) and introduce the wands initially then as they are fascinating enough to provide gentle distraction. The gentle vibrations are a supportive way to relax and distract the body enough to promote release. The combination of relaxation and distraction is what helps a child experience those first few successful releases while minimizing the fear they may experience.
About the Book: See, It's Not Scary: Elephant Goes PooPoo and You Can Too: An interactive board book with all the fun toileting sounds makes the perfect introduction to potty learning or potty training.

About our Flushable Poop Party Toilet Target: Would a fun story about Mr. Poo not wanting to be lonely but instead wanting to join other poops in the toilet encourage your child want to let go of their fear of releasing stool during potty training? Place one flushable (water soluable) target in the toilet of our poops partying (paired with our fun story about Mr. Poo wanting to join the poop party) and give your child the boost they need to overcome fear of poop releasing during potty training! *30 pieces of target per package target material: water soluble (no glue)
