Rain Delay

Like Wimbledon's Men's Final, we had been experiencing a frustrating "rain delay" on the potty-training front.

Then a friend taught me this song on the phone today:

Sprinkle, tinkle, little one.
Going potty is such fun.
Wipe and flush and wash your hands.
Don’t forget to pull up your pants.
Sprinkle, tinkle, little one.
Going potty is such fun!

Sprinkle, tinkle, little dear.
Going potty is nothing to fear.
Sit down carefully, you won’t fall in.
When you’re done, you and Mommy will grin.
Sprinkle, tinkle, little dear.
Going potty is nothing to fear.

Just hearing me talking about the potty with my friend, whose potty-trained child sang the first verse of the song to me, seems to have done the trick.

Both kids asked to use the potty. And succeeded!

Let the game . . . continue!
