A Montessori approach to toilet training

Is your child ready to use the potty or toilet?
With summer around the corner I’m getting more questions in class about toilet training and if I have any Montessori tips. So today, here is the approach I prefer when your child is showing interest in using the toilet.
“Learning to use the toilet is a natural process that begins when your child’s desire to be grown up and his neurological development have reached the point where he can control his bladder and bowels. We don’t train children to use the toilet, we support them when they are ready.”(How to Raise an Amazing Child: The Montessori way to bring up caring confident children, by Tim Seldin)"
