Potty training on the go!

Summer time is the time when we are always on the go, but potty training is one thing that has to remain constant. I will never forget the first time that we traveled with my daughter in her big girl underwear. As soon as we were on a stretch of road where there was no place to stop we hear, "Mommy, I need peepee now!" Wow, I still can't believe that we actually pulled over to the side of the street and tried to explain that she was going to need to go to the bathroom outside!! After that moment I was on a mission to find a solution to that issue, so it would NEVER happen again. Fortunately, the solution was very easy to find. After a quick stop at my local Babies R Us, I found the Potette Plus 2-in-1 Travel Potty.



This little potty can sit right on the ground or it can be used as an adapter for a full-sized toilet when traveling. I comes with little plastic bags with an absorbent core inside and you simply put the bag around the potty, have your little one have a seat and then tie the bag up and throw it away. I really only purchased the potty for "emergency only" type situations and I didn't think I would need it very often, but if I did need it I would have it. However, I pack that little potty with me everywhere I go. It fits in my diaper bag, in my backpack, and in my carry-on luggage. It stays in the back of my car for instances like the initial incident. It never fails, when we are on a long walk, or at the park with friends, someone's child always has to go to the potty and they can! So before you hit the road for a roadtrip this summer, or before you head for the airport, make sure you pick up one of these fantastic little lifesavers. For around $15, you won't be sorry!
