We select a children's pot for girls

Content

One of the main criteria for growing up a child is his accustoming to the pot, because it not only indicates a fairly developed consciousness, but also makes it much easier for parents to restore order in the house. Of course, the child will quickly get used to the product that is convenient for him and does not cause any discomfort, so at least the first copy should be carefully selected. To choose the best children's pot for a girl correctly means to lay an excellent basis for the manners of the growing lady. However, not everyone knows how to do this.

When to start?

In today's world, there is a rapid acceleration of the development of children, to which many parents are happy to play along. Some begin to put the kids on the pot before the year with the logic that the sooner you start, the sooner the habit will form and the apartment will become clean. Experts in this situation usually just shake their heads.

Let's just say, experimenting is not forbidden at any age - there will definitely be no harm from this. Moreover, it is possible that the child, sitting in a convenient pot, will do his own business at the same time, but you should not see his own wish in this. By the year, most children, if they don’t walk confidently, are ready to experiment with walks with all their might, but they still cannot control their needs, so at the initial stage they will have to get used to puddles, because even diapers rarely provide one hundred percent effect.

The average age when the child begins not only to meet needs as they arise, but to endure to a certain point, experts believe one and half year. In some, this period comes even a little earlier, the parents of others will have to be patient. In any case, the pot can be bought in advance, but you should not be angry at the girl, if at an earlier stage she does not want to demonstrate the expected result.

Varieties

Before deciding on a particular model, it is worth getting closer to the existing range. Today, there are quite a few varieties of such children's affiliation, and each of them may have its own advantages.

  • Classic pots are usually round, they are distinguished by minimalism in the number of parts and shape. Most often, girls, at least as a first copy, are advised to buy just such a product.
  • Anatomical The pots are equipped with a back at the back and a protrusion at the front; they monitor not only the ease of handling needs, but also the correct posture in the process. They often have a protrusion in the front, thanks to which the children sit on it with their legs apart - this moment often scares the parents of girls, but is rated as plus the boys' parents.
  • Models with a "skirt" suggest the presence around the pot flat footboard, on which the baby gets up instead of the floor. Such a wide base design does not allow the child to overturn the product, which will once again contribute to the order in the apartment.
  • Highchair so called not for nothing - it really is very similar to the usual piece of children's furniture with legs and back, that's just in the seat it has a hole, under which is a removable intake. Thus, the girl will learn to sit on the pot and on the chair.
  • The pot can also perform clean entertainment function - if it is made in the form of an animal or a car (however, this is closer for boys).The main thing when using such a model is to explain in time to the child that the pot is only his personal version of the product.
  • Musical models demonstrate the possibility of using modern technologies, as a mechanism for habituation using schemes similar to those that are relevant in the process of animal training. For the correct action, the child needs praise, but with such know-how a person does not have to be present nearby - the pot itself turns on pleasant music for the child when he correctly understands his purpose.

Of course, such a product is much more expensive, and often also criticized by experts - they say, not all children then want to abandon such an accessory in favor of an ordinary toilet that does not want to give solemnity to everyday needs.

  • All the above models are a purely homely solution, however. in recent decades, with the increase in the number of private cars, the diversity has increased greatly hiking pots. The principles of this design can be completely different, but it almost always differs either by improved tightness, or significantly reduced dimensions and light weight.
  • In the category of pots it is often written and special children's lining on the toiletwhich allow the child with its small dimensions to use a wide adult cover. However, such a model is definitely not suitable as the first pot, and, in general, such a solution is not so often in demand.

Selection logic

It is clear that among the two pots, even those selected from the same category, one is likely to be much more convenient than the second. Reviews of experts show that in some cases the reason for the delay in conscious urination is not age, but an unfortunate sanitary fixture, therefore parents must take a responsible approach to its choice. To do this, pay attention to the popular tips that help to quickly achieve the desired result.

  • Many parents, deceived by well-thought-out marketing, are willing to pay large sums in order to buy the best model for their child, which often includes a musical pot or toy pot. On the one hand, such a product will really attract the attention of the girl and make him study, on the other - in general, it’s not a fact that the baby will understand his purpose correctly. The abundance of available features makes the main one unobvious, and the child may never find the right association, and in the future, as has already been said, they will not appreciate the more “boring” type of plumbing.

In addition, the child is inclined to spend quite a lot of time on an interesting pot, but he shouldn’t sit for a long time - it is harmful for the muscles of the pelvis and perineum.

  • Often for parents, the lid on the pot is a defining moment, however, in most cases its presence is not so important. A small child is not always able to open it, and for him such a call would be an additional reason not to use the product. If parents also regularly wash the pot, cleaning it after each use case, then the presence of a lid is not at all justified.
  • Choosing a children's plumbing, you should look at it at least from the point of view whether it is comfortable to sit on it at all. The hole should be medium in size - the girl should not fall into it, but she should not aim too much. As practice shows, too small an “entrance” usually provokes the fact that the bumps stick into the body of the baby and cause him pain.
  • One of the principal tasks of any baby pot is to help in hygiene throughout the whole apartment, therefore it is extremely important to choose a sustainable model. Such plumbing is usually made as easy as possible, and a child, though not on purpose, can easily overturn a product, and then the benefit from it will be really relative - the puddles have not gone away.In this sense, models with a “skirt” are very popular, because a wide base simply will not allow the structure to roll over.
  • Another fairly good solution is the rubber bottom of the model - it does not prevent tipping, but at least does not slip on the floor, reducing the likelihood of splashing.
  • Previously, the pots were exclusively enameled (if you don’t go into the story when they were made entirely from ceramics), however, today plastic products are worthy of competition. As is often the case, a variety of options are due to the fact that none of them is ideal, having its own advantages and disadvantages. The enameled product, naturally, is much stronger - its metal base will not allow it to be deformed or pierced with weak children's hands, but such a structure only weighs quite a lot, and its surface always remains cold, which makes it unpleasant to sit on such a pot.

Children in this context like plastic pots much more capable of keeping warm, and even easier for mothers to make such lightweight models; Only the majority of plastic models can be broken with one strong blow.

  • If the choice fell on a model made of plastic, the material is subject to more thorough study. Not all types of plastic are completely safe, and although, at first glance, it is difficult to distinguish between hazardous and non-hazardous, odor is capable of helping - really good material simply does not have it, since it does not emit any fumes at all. Plastic needs to be assessed from the point of view of durability, because, in general, this material can be used in very serious industries, or it can crack from strong pressure.

Finally, you need to study the quality of the product itself, because the surface of the plastic is not always smooth, and any cracks or burrs represent a risk of injury to the child.

  • The handle of the pot is almost always, but it is quite important that it be comfortable. This is practical not only for the mother, but also for the child, at least, if this is not his first product and it is already quite large. The fact is that many children are ready to independently pour the contents of the tank into the toilet, but at this point it is important to ensure reliable control of the position of the product so that it does not splash out its insides on the baby.
  • A good pot can easily become a potential breeding ground for microbes, so it is important to choose a model that does not have places that are difficult to reach for cleaning. This requirement is particularly relevant in the case of collapsible models, in which often the gaps between adjoining parts require a certain skill for cleaning.

If you ignore this moment, you should not be surprised that the pot does not lose its unpleasant smell even after cleaning, and the child caught some strange disease.

  • Reviews of some parents also indicate the color of the potentially better pot - it is desirable that it should not be too light. Most of the materials are not affected, but still on the light surface may remain stained spots, which are practically impossible to remove. As for some specific colors, everything is very, very subjective - for example, contrary to popular belief, the baby does not necessarily choose the pink version among other colors.

Another common mistake is the opinion that one pot is enough for a child for all childhood. Of course, in some cases it works, but you should always remember that in the first years of life a child grows, and very quickly, which means that it was convenient and comfortable for him yesterday, today may already be inappropriate.

We'll have to wait a few years until the girl starts using the “adult” toilet bowl, and until this point her personal plumber should always be comfortable, otherwise confusion cannot be avoided.

Since pots should never be bought “for growth”, the first pot is selected with an eye strictly on the child’s current parameters - then it will be cheaper and it will not be so pitiful to replace it. In the future, be prepared to buy at least one more pot.
