Expert/company advocating this approach (if applicable):
Mother of 4

Description of method:
Encourage your child to "go potty" frequently. Afterwards, give them a penny to put into a bank (easily seen but not accessible). Allow them to put in the penny themselves. They love to hear the noise as it falls in! Use the money as a treat. Show & tell them where it came from. A lot of "good jobs" as well!

Recommended age for this method:
24 months

How long should it take for child to be potty trained by this method?
approx. 2-3 weeks
