What Kind of Potty Chair?
There are two types of potty chairs that you can buy: standalone or insert. A standalone, as the name suggests, stands independently of the toilet. An insert is a potty chair that fits into a regular toilet seat. A standalone potty seat is ideal for children who are afraid of the toilet. Children like that their feet remain on the floor at all times, keeping them balanced. Standalone potty seats are generally inexpensive and come in a variety of designs and colors that will attract your child’s attention and encourage him to use his potty chair. Look for a standalone potty chair that has a stable base so that it won’t tip over. A splatter guard and easy-to-remove pot make clean-up easier. A major drawback to standalone potty seats is the cleanup. Not only do you have to remove the pot from the potty seat and dump it into the toilet, but your child may try to do the same-only the contents may not end up in the toilet. Another disadvantage is that your child may get used to using his pot
