After struggling to get Ian excited about going potty...we decided it was time to make some changes.
#1 buy a potty.. (we had been using an insert on the regular toilet in the bathroom) we bought a potty that makes music once he goes in it! His eyes got SO big the first time he heard the music....
#2 New incentive. CIRCUS PEANUTS!!! & STICKERS
#3 a smaller chart so that he could fill it up quicker
Finally, I think we are making some progress. Ian has kept his pants dry for the last five day!!! The "GOOD JOB IAN" potty charts are now getting full of stickers in days instead of MONTHS!!! Ian got a Mickey Mouse flashlight (the night we camped out) for his first reward and a pair of "Cars" sunglasses for the second chart.
He is even telling us two to three times a day that he needs to go potty. When he does that he gets TWO stickers. As, soon as he hears the music from the potty, Ian jumps up and start his "I went pee pee in the potty" dance....followed by "candy and sticker please" Levi joins in on the celebration with his own little dance for his brother and has learned to say "Candy".
