Many parents do not know exactly when to start toilet teaching or "potty training." All children are not ready at the same age, so it is important to monitor your child for signs of preparation, such as stopping an activity for a few seconds or clutching his coat.
Most children begin to show these signs between 18 and 24 months, although some may be ready earlier or later than that. And boys often start later and take longer to learn to use the potty than girls.
Instead of using age as a preparation indicator, look for other signs that your child may be ready to start heading to the pot, as the ability to:
follow simple instructions
understand the words about the toileting process
control the muscles responsible for elimination
verbally express a need to go
maintain a dry film for 2 hours or more
go to pot, sitting on it, and then get off the pot
pull down diapers, disposable pants or leggings
show an interest in using the potty or slip
