Happy Baby Tips – My Baby Boy Keeps Peeing All Over the Toilet.
Happy Baby USA is adding a new category called Happy Baby Tips. We will provide short, easy to remember tips to help parents and children live a more fruitful and happier life.
The quest for a clean bathroom – more a less a clean toilet! Today’s tip relates to boys who are learning to “pee” in the toilet. Although many of us start using the toilet sitting down, there will be a time where the child will have to learn to pee standing up. Many parents stress during this time because boys in particular seem to just aim forward and not “in” the toilet. Turn it into a fun activity! A great way to entice him to urinate in the toilet is to place something like a “Cheerio” in the middle of the toilet. In most cases he will focus and try to aim at the cereal – cheerio.
