Ugh. We are not THERE yet. We are so close. In fact, 12 months ago, I believed we were very duper ticking-time-bomb close since my not-yet-two-year old was so thinking about pooping in the potty. quick ahead a year as well as he’s still rather thinking about #2Â because he gets to trade $h1# for candy. however peeing is tiring as well as takes him away from playing, so we haven’t advanced to undies from diapers.
When I wished to do a tie-dye party, I chose to dye his ordinary gerber training pants as well as make them much more fun as well as exciting. since why not?
I choose these very absorptive undies since they keep much more liquid in (and less on my floor) as well as likewise assist the kid feel wet when he’s peed. Win/win. however they’re tiring as heck. So, if your kid wants character pull-ups, these are lame in comparison.
My ingredients:
a tie-dye set from Tulip (available at Michael’s or amazon) — I got this mega-pack with all the colors for future projects; only mix what you’ll utilize each time!
a pack of gerber white undies AKA training pants (from Target or amazon)
a celebration including sangria — I had good friends as well as fun around for moral support, this is optional
Following the directions on Wendolonia for tie dye, I started off by trying to make fantastic swirly patterns as well as designs. After my second sangria, I just let my youngster spray the squirt-bottles around as well as tried to steer remove of getting any type of colors on my skin as well as clothes.
And our results!
Though I felt silly doing this — thus the sangria — there are two reasons why I believe it is a great sufficient concept to share as well as replicate:
high-quality training undies are now customized as well as fun
tie-dye hides spots (‘nuf said)
It’s as well soon to state whether these are the magic missing piece to get my child to pee in the potty, however he was asking about them this morning, as well as self-motivation is the true essential ingredient.
