    Potty training seats are essentially kid-sized toilet rims that are inserted into the bowl of adult-sized toilets. Training seats are used to aid children in their potty training ventures by ensuring they have a toilet that comfortably fits their bodies. Unlike potty chairs, training seats require little to no clean-up after children use the restroom. Seats also allow children to associate the adult toilet with restroom use, making for a simple transition from training seat to adult toilet. A key consideration for choosing a potty training seat is the color: do you want a subtle shade that blends into the toilet, or do you want a colorful seat your kid will adore? Either way, a training seat will familiarize your child with your family’s home toilet in no time.
