Potty training a toddler is less about the potty and more about reading your child’s own timing. Here is the full kit list, the method, and a realistic day-by-day plan for the week.
Most children start somewhere between 18 and 30 months, but age on its own is not the decision. Here is how to work out whether the moment is right for your child, and what to do once you have picked the week.
Most children are dry in the daytime within about a week, but the honest range runs from three days to three weeks. Here’s what actually happens day by day, and what to do if it’s taking longer.

Padded training pants and pull-ups feel like the safe choice, but they can slow down what you’re trying to teach. Here’s why ordinary cotton pants, worn from day one, help your child learn faster, and where pull-ups genuinely still belong.
