How to use it
Pick a goal that matches where your child is right now, even if that’s just sitting.
Choose how many spots to fill. Fewer spots mean a sooner celebration.
Hang it in the bathroom, at your child’s eye level.
Add a sticker right away, and celebrate the try, not just the result.
Make it last: print on cardstock, laminate it or slip it into a sheet protector, and use a dry-erase marker or Velcro dots so you can use it again.
Questions parents ask
Should we give a sticker for trying?
Many families do, especially early on. Sitting on the potty is a real step, and a sticker makes it easy to notice.
What if accidents happen?
They’re a normal part of learning. The chart only counts the wins, so nothing comes off. If you’re worried about potty training, your pediatrician can help.
Is my child’s name saved anywhere?
No. A name you type stays in your browser so it can print on the sheet. It is never sent to us.
Is it really free?
Yes. One email unlocks this and every other tool in the library, and you can print as many as you like. Your email also brings one short story each Tuesday, and you can leave anytime.
