The Potty Boot Camp

In keeping with the theme of fear of public bathrooms, I found the ‘Potty Poncho’. The potty poncho is a large, one piece, foldable, washable, re-usable toilet seat cover. It comes is a handy carrying pouch that you can keep in your purse, glove box, or diaper bag. Whip it out, place it over the toilet seat (it covers the ENTIRE seat), and then pick it back up when you’re done. For parents, the product eases the stress of thinking about the nasty germs that might be lurking on the seat. When your toddler is gripping onto the seat you can rest easy that the Poncho is the only thing the child is touching.

When done, the company recommends wiping the cover with an anti-bacterial wipe before folding. When the seat cover seems to be getting a bit grimy, you can throw it in the washing machine. Wah-lah! Good as new.

This is a great choice for the environment since you won’t be disposing of all those other toddler seat covers made from paper. It’s a bit more expensive to begin with, but a whole lot cheaper in the long run - and you’re also buying some peace of mind.

The Poncho is available from Amazon (see above) or from the company’s website at:
