Did you know that June is Officially
Potty Training Awareness Month? I don't know who made it 'official' but I can understand why June was chosen for this 'awareness month'. Although I did not have boys myself, I did have a daycare in my home so I did get to help potty train little boys. And the summer months made it especially easy because while we would be playing outside, the little boys would think nothing of 'watering' the flowers, a tree, the rocks, the driveway, or even occasionally, the side of my house. What potty training boy could resist the fun of peeing on a flower bush when he had to 'go'? It was way more fun then sitting on a potty chair like the girls did, or even running inside when so much was going on outside. So I agree that June is the most appropriate month to make the Official Potty Training Awareness Month.
In honor of
Potty Training Awareness Month I thought is appropriate to make you aware of a really cool potty seat that we now carry in our store. It is the
Boon Potty Bench. It comes in the bold Boon colors of Green or Blue and is truly a toilet with all the bells and whistles, and at a totally
affordable price of just $34.99. You can
find it in our online store by clicking here.
The Boon Potty Bench has two enclosed side storage spaces that are perfect for keeping your potty training supplies, like potty books, potty charts & stickers or any of your childs favorite books or small toys that they might want to have while sitting on the potty. It even has a built-in toilet paper holder, making it seem more like a grown up toilet. It has a pull-out drawer that makes it easy to empty the potty and sanitize too. For boys there is a removable deflector shield that is soft & flexible so it helps to guard against injuries. With the sleek, modern design the Potty Bench will look stylish in your bathroom and serves as a super sturdy step stool that can support up to 300 lbs!
So if your little one is nearing the potty training stage, I suggest that you
take a look at the Boon Potty Bench. Although it is suggested that you not start potty training until your child reaches at least the age of 18 months, it is never too early to introduce your child to the seat. Let them get use to seeing this piece of furniture in your bathroom
before you start potty training so that it doesn't seem frightening to your little one later, when the time is right for him or her.
The
Boon Potty Bench can be purchased in our Online Store 24/7, or during normal business hours in our physical store in Cortez, Colorado.

I wish you both lots of success and patience...no two children potty train at the same age, stage, or by exactly the same method. Be flexible, patient, and understanding of accidents. Remember that we ALL had to go through the potty training stage, and unless you wear adult diapers now...you made it through and so will your little one.
