Why Location Matters
When your child starts peeing/pooping in their pants, you'll need to pick them up and get them to the bathroom quickly. I'm pretty sure you don't want urine splashing all over your house. If you have carpet, consider putting a plastic sheet or towel on the floor when your child is playing. I know this sounds exhausting and scary, but try to think of it as a really wonderful bonding time with your child. Rediscover your house and play with old toys in new ways; act silly and have a dance party. When you play with toys together with your child, they'll pay more attention to the activity, and this potty training time will be a more memorable experience for both parent and child.
