Stickers, stars and a big high-five. For a lot of toddlers, that's what potty training is really about.
We made a free printable potty chart you can stick on the bathroom door tonight. Page two is a potty on the go checklist for the diaper bag or the car, because the "I have to go NOW" moment never waits until you're home.

What's on the chart
-
Four weeks, seven days a week. Each day has a big star to color in or cover with a sticker.
-
A simple key: a star for trying, a drop for pee in the potty, a party hat for poop in the potty, and a car for a potty on the go.
-
A "when I fill a row, I get..." line, so your child can pick the prize with you. A sticker sheet, a trip to the park, or choosing tonight's bedtime story all work.
-
Page two: the Potty on the Go Checklist. Tape it inside the diaper bag or the car door so nobody forgets the liners.
How to use it (without the pressure)
Reward the try, not just the result. Sitting on the potty counts. Toddlers notice when we celebrate effort.
Let them do the sticker. Peeling and placing it is half the fun.
Keep the chart where they can see it. Eye level on the bathroom door or the fridge.
Bring it on trips. Fold it into the diaper bag and add a car sticker for every potty stop on the road.
Accidents happen. Skip the empty box and move on. It's a phase, not a report card.
Potty training away from home
A chart works best when the potty is there wherever your toddler is. That's why we made Potette, from Kalencom, a family baby company since 1971.
The Potette Fold N Go Potty folds to about 1 cm, so it can live in the diaper bag, the stroller basket or the car door pocket. It's a real potty that stands on its own on any flat surface, not a toilet seat insert, and it's a MadeForMums Awards 2024 Silver winner. Starting from zero? The Fold N Go + 30 Liners Starter Bundle includes the potty with 3 liners in the box plus a 30-pack, so you start with 33.
At home, the 2-in-1 Potette Plus works as a folding potty with locking legs or as a seat on top of a regular toilet. Same potty at home and away, which toddlers tend to like.
Liners hold up to 5 oz, tie shut and toss like a diaper. They come in packs of 10, 30 and 90.
