Time to Pee?

I've potty trained two children and I still don't feel like I have all the answers- mainly because each kid is different and the potty training methods will need to be different! What worked for one of my children might not work for the other- I need to think this through and see how to make my now two year old the most successful. I'm not even sure if Sunshine is ready to potty train!

I found this quiz and thought it was helpful- maybe you'd like it too!
