“Go Potty!”

I found something that helps me not have to remind my four year old to use the potty.  We started a sticker chart to encourage better behavior and cooperation.  I decided to add a section for going potty without being told.  We talked about it the day before and I said we would start the next day.  When she woke up the next morning, she used the bathroom before she even came to our room.  Today was the third day and I have not had to remind her to go, except right before we left the house.  It is so much nicer than the constant fight about it and dealing with accidents in the bathroom that come from waiting until the last second.  I’m grateful for positive reinforcement!
