Rating: Summary: Cool one Review: 5 stars for saving the money on diapers.If you are tired of diapers - just start reading and enjoy this book. After a couple of... days/weeks/months (I'll keep my fingers crossed) your honey will realize the process :D Definitely will help you (the rest is just your persistence).
Rating: Summary: Leave it to Ernie! Review: Great book! Baby Ernie takes your little one through all the steps of using a potty, even washing his hands afterward! We've had this book for two days and my 2 year old daughter won't put it down. She keeps saying "Ernie go potty!" Great starter book for potty training!
Rating: Summary: Umm..what's the list price? Review: Hey everyone is entitled to make a buck, but if the only pages you're showing are the cover and the back page with the price on it, you might make sure your price is at least as low as list if not less. Book says $3.99 you say list is $4.99 I feel sorry for anyone who ordered this online and paid shipping onto of over sticker.
Rating: Summary: Great Book!! Review: I really like this book. My daughter got it for her first birthday, because I want her to be aware of potty training for a while before she does it. She is very interested in this book. I also like that it teaches them to wash their hands when they are finished. Would reccomend to people who are potty training little ones. Also very reasonably priced.
Rating: Summary: Very Good Review: Leave it to Sesame Street to produce a potty book that is as simple as 1-2-3. We loved the photos (instead of the usual drawings). Baby Ernie had some of the same toys we have - my daughter loved that! "Don't use too much, Ernie!" I often tell her when she rolls out too much toilet paper. We have read almost every potty book available on the market as of 9/2003 (over two dozen!). Most fit into two categories: INSTRUCTIONAL books that introduce the skills needed to master the potty; and those that are primarily ENTERTAINING, for children who understand what is supposed to happen on the potty, but need extra time to make it happen. I think Too Big For Diapers fits more in the ENTERTAINING category, although it includes washing hands with "sudsy soap" - a step many potty books omit. Worth the money.
Rating: Summary: YOU CAN'T LOOK INSIDE THIS BOOK! Review: My 18 month old loved this book the moment it arrived in the mail. The pictures of baby Ernie are cute and the steps taught are simple, but complete. We read this book over and over. When we read it, our son wants to go use his potty like Ernie. The book uses the word "go" so it's easy to insert your word of choice (pee, poop, etc...).
Rating: Summary: Big help Review: My 2-1/2 year old son loved this book. It arrived on day 3 of our potty training effort, and it really seemed to motivate him to poop on the potty, which he had been fearful of, although he had been great at going pee pee on the potty and was already staying dry all day. This book and the one called "The Potty Book for boys" are both very good, I thought, in that regard. (I have two other potty books, but I can't remember their names. One has a noise button that makes flushing sounds.) I agree with those who say the wording is fine about having to "go" etc. without specific words - - but, let me say further that, "Hello, parents! Unless your potty "trainee" can actually read the words in the book, or unless you have so many different readers of it that you can't enforce the reading of a consistent version of it, you can MAKE UP, skip or substitute whatever words you want![.]!" I have changed "pee" to "pee pee" or added discussion of "poop" instead of just "going potty" in this book and others. Just make it consistent every time you read it, or they'll figure that out very quickly. Repetition is key. Good luck, potty trainers. FYI - - we are on day 8 now, and he is making all pee pee and all poops in the potty (the big toilet actually with a toilet ring), except we do still put him in his diaper for afternoon nap and nighttime.
Rating: Summary: A perfect introduction! Review: My son was showing some of the signs that he might be ready for his own potty, so I bought this book to introduce the basics. I was really impressed. It explains how babies wear diapers, but when they grow up, they use a potty. It also illustrates important points like not using too much toilet paper and washing your hands afterwards. It's a simple story, so it doesn't go into a lot of detail. There's no discussion of "poo-poo" or "pee-pee." It just uses the generic term "having to go." But I don't think that's a bad thing. This book isn't meant to be the only training tool you use. I think it's a great introduction to potty training. And my son can't get enough of it. He wants to read it over and over. You'll have it memorized within a week.
Rating: Summary: Adorable photograph/cardboard book for potty training Review: This book offers colorful photographs, (not illustrations), of Sesame Street's Ernie and Bert in their baby-version form. The baby Muppets are simply adorable. The pages are made of cardboard, which is great for small children. The storyline covers the complete potty routine, including wiping and washing hands!
Rating: Summary: GREAT BUT WISH IT WERE ELMO Review: This wonderful little Sesame Street book takes you on a step by step story as baby Ernie uses the potty all by himself for the first time. It's a cute little book and easily understandable by young ones. It definitely motivated mine to start using the potty. The only very MINOR complaint is that I wish the book featured Elmo since that is my son's favorite Sesame Street character. Nicely done. Well written for toddlers and parents.
