KERPLUNK

Kerplunk. That is the sound one tiny turd makes when dropping into the potty - Oh sweet music!

On his own, Turbo decided to pee and poop in the potty tonight. Just in time as we're potty training him on Saturday. Why? See here and here for a couple reasons. (the diaper fix didn't last long and pushed me over the edge) All the talk about it this week has made him so excited that he didn't want to wait!

I didn't have my camera (lucky readers), so here's a picture of Turbo on the potty in February. He never went, but it was a cute photo-op.

What is Tot School?

For our family, it is dedicated time with Turbo where we focus on learning through FUN and Productive Play! I typically have a theme for the week and certain skills for our focus. Most days we spend about 30 minutes on Tot School - typically divided into two sessions.

Why? The free play all day was not working for us. Turbo would get antsy and start looking for something more challenging or different. Usually that meant playing in something he wasn't allowed or he would be very demanding of my attention every minute. The TotSchool concept has really worked for us. We both love the togetherness and learning. Plus, he's happier with some self-directed play later.

How to do it? 1+1+1=1 has put together an awesome site with a wealth of ideas for getting started. There are so many wonderful blogs with terrific ideas! Just jump in and get started. It's tons of fun and both you and your tot will learn a lot. Also, feel free to email me with questions.
