Poo Poo Bum Bum Wee Wee

I was looking for books that explained potty training to my son without being boring or too simple. We got a few like ‘no more nappies’ and ‘what is poo’ book but they didn’t hold my sons interest even though they had flaps to lift up. Then we found this one. It’s lovely, has bright pictures, makes it all very normal and shows both boys, girls, different ethnicities and abilities. And most importantly it’s catchy and keepps my sons interest. You also have to sing it, it rhymes throughout and it’s so much better if you sing it. We would read/sing this book even when it wasn’t potty time as wel as when he used the potty. And now six months on when he does a pee he always quotes ‘let the wee wee flow’ and when he has a particularly ‘difficult’ poo (his words 😂) he still asks for the book to distract him. He seems so scared of the potty when we started out and His reaction to not using it was so strong that I was worried he would get some sort of aversion to it. So I slowed down and tried to find books, shows, and things that were fun and no pressure. This book was a game changer! Will recommend to all my potty training mum friends!

The product arrived with a bent front cover and had damage to the edges.

This has been a real gem for us. We’ve had it since my son was around 18 months to introduce potty training, and I never pressured him — he often chose it himself. It stayed on the bookshelf, and now that he’s toilet trained, he still sometimes picks it up, either after an accident or just for fun. The rhyming text is engaging, and it does a great job of normalizing potty talk without feeling pushy. It’s a playful, relatable way for little ones to learn about and become comfortable with using the toilet, and it encourages independent reading too.

This book really helped my toddler understand using the toilet. He loved singing the song as well.

Highly recommended. Most of the books are about going on potty but we went straight onto a toilet so this book is perfect as it has pictures of children on toilets. You can sing it to because it rhymes. It helped us on longer sittings keeping little one occupied long enough, waiting for you know what to drop.
