I still remember all right buddy you need to go potty good morning you ready to go potty good job go ahead okay I like do you want to put your undies on are you done are you all done you want me to leave your undies right here okay he said pointed at the floor me to put them down said leave them here he said uh come good morning all right flush flush the toilet big boy good job put your underwear onow you're going to get a big marshmallow cuz you want poopy on the potty all right that's sounds like a good deal to me give me five yeah wait we got to do something really cool um where is it hold on where did it go this way think it's in the kitchen oh we're coming Co the bro what are you doing in there m this way come on come with me you ready look you want to wear this it's your new watch put it on yeah let's put it on guess what it's you know what it's going to do H it's going to help remind you to go potty Bud all PE on potty PE on potty yeah it's going to help your mind you go peepe on potty here let's check it out bro here it is let me put it on which hand do you want it on this one or this one this one okay are you ready uh are you so excited this was really cool huh uhuh you know what that's going to do through here it's going to tell you what you have to do it's going to tell you what to do what do you need to do when you're watch beeps where should you go um okay ready oh you want to hear music let's you like that one hold on do you like this one or do you like this [Music] one that's a bedtime one how about this oh is that a good one to tell you to go potty potty oh look at that do you like that okay so we're going to set your alarm ready it okay what time Toilet Time what does that say 1 hour every hour every hour 8 work and he just went yeah he just went all right so every hour when you hear your when it goes and it plays that music look at it you're going to go potty okay you know what's cool we can also set a bedtime alarm did you know that when this when your watch goes off today what do you need to do um go potty right when your watch plays your song and it goes you go potty and then you get a prize sound good no now that's what a prize is T Tada Tada that's so fun all right if you guys hear his watch going off you say Israel you got to go potty let's go so you guys na ne baby send us this watch to share with you it is it's a potty training watch but it also has alarm so you can do like snack time bedtime um or any sort of morning routine you know like brush your teeth time and it's just super convenient for Littles who are just learning those initial like habits and who need that constant reminder but as a Mom of eight there's a lot going on in our house and we don't always have like the mental space for for the reminder you know what I mean sometimes I'm like how is it lunchtime already we just finished cleaning e up breakfast so like I forget to say hey you need to do this at this time I'm so this kind of gives him a little bit of that empowerment to be responsible um but also teaches him good habits it's kind of just like an aid or an assist for me in Remembering especially with potty training the key that we have found in seven attempts at potty training is like constant reminders you just have to like go for it put them in on underwear and be ready to remind them every 20 minutes every 30 minutes every 45 minutes every hour um work your way up and they eventually get it so he's been doing a really good job this is going to help we have it set for every hour uh sometimes he just like sneaks outside and pees and so we live in the country and that's not a problem but obviously we want him to be going potty more than he's going outside he's ready for breakfast obviously and so um I'm hoping just like this consistent habit of like every hour for a few days we'll really get him in that mode but so I'm going to go put this on him we are going to get started with our day we have to have breakfast do all the things um we actually have quite a bit to get done today Jude and hopefully this will take reminding him to go po off my list we'll keep you guys posted okay so one you showing them your your chocolate chips one of our biggest Turtles has been like first thing in the morning um cuz we don't always know right when he wakes up he was like waking up and then he would like poop in his diaper or whatever um and so this morning he didn't he we got him right up took him to potty he peed he pooped so we've given him two chocolate chips for number two and that's like the perfect reward I feel like it's like this tiny little treat it's not too much um hey and then sometimes we do zli poops which are like sugar-free Xylitol good for your teeth lollipops and those would be like hey you went for a whole day this is great like here's one um or you went number two that's great are you so proud I'm proud of you all right so today every time you're watch beeps and you try to go potty I'll give you a chocolate chip okay all right good deal I'm going to put you down I'm going to make breakfast extra little bit of positive reinforcement goes the longest way in getting them to actually want to go potty when you ask them to cuz they know if I do this I'm going to get a treat and then I have found with our other kids it has not been hard to transition out of the treats like eventually they'll just start going potty when they need to go and so you don't have to worry about the rewards it's not something we still do for our our 12y old tripped over a baby who was sitting in the middle of the floor probably not the best place to put a baby he is perfectly fine look at me he's smiling and everything well I almost just tripped over him I was like wa what was that I
