In the end, the decision came down to two. There was the Potette Plus, which had the advantage of converting into a toilet seat, but also had plenty of reviewers cursing its fiddliness, expensive bag attachments and fondness for pinching fingers. As well as various colours, they’ve also got two animal print designs – cow and ladybird. We have the latter, as part of our increasing collection of ladybird-themedtoddler kit, and Minnie loves it. So much so that at one point she attempted to insist she only wanted to use that potty rather than the ones we have at home… The courier will make 1 delivery attempt and if unable to deliver will leave a card to explain if your parcel has been left in a safe place or taken to your local DPD drop off shop.

Ladybird My Carry Potty®

The end goal of potty training is teaching your child to use a toilet, so it can make sense to use a potty designed to look just like one. This is what has made the My Real Potty Mini Size from Nuby popular. Designed to look like a miniature toilet, this product has a flip-up seat lid and includes a flushing button with lights and sounds.Of course, this doesn’t need to be plumbed in and includes an easily removable bowl for dealing with waste. The rear tank on the toilet is actually a handy storage area for wipes. However, like real toilets, this is not designed for travel and is heavier than most potties. One way to help your child with potty training is by making it fun, and it doesn’t getmore fun than the My Potty Friend from Fisher-Price. It includes a lid that opensand closes and a flush handle that makes realistic sounds, as well as a tissue holder that slides in and out.When used, a toddler’s “success” is rewarded with fun sounds and music, encouraging repeatperformances. Please note that all our delivery times are only guidelines and are not 100% guaranteed due to certain factors which are outside of our control. If you can’t empty it wherever you are, the potty is also leakproof and odourproof when you close it. I know, not a situation anyone would actively look forward to but if we’re miles from a toilet, I need a girl-friendly solution. A tree will not suffice.The seal of My Carry Potty is so good that if it is kept shut on an aircraft, then the pressurisation that occurs at altitude may make it impossible to ever open again without damaging the potty. It is very likely that you will want to take My Carry Potty on an aircraft from time to time, and if you do, please ensure that the potty is left slightly open at take-off and throughout the flight. The Potette Plus has a minimalist design that makes it easy for use on the go. Essentially, the Potette Plus is a potty seat with a splash guard and foldable legs, which can either be used to stand it up as a potty or spread out to support its use on a toilet.
