			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Why is it that the kids who are not yet potty trained are the first to sit on your lap?</p>
<p>I got the impression, from teaching over the years, that the youngest kids who are not yet potty trained are little musical beings who are tuned in to what makes them happy, music, dance, drawing, etc. They are happy in the now with no thought of bodily functions until we propose our own understanding on them, well, of course they need to be taught not to relieve themselves wherever they are, but the main idea that whatever they are doing comes first must be tempered. While thinking about this, I discovered website <a href="http://www.tinkletoonz.com/" target="_blank">www.tinkletoonz.com</a> that has a musical potty which has a sensor in it which plays the tune “It’s a Small World After All”. When any moisture enters the potty, the song plays.</p>
<p>Great for any daycare.</p>
<p>Apparently it has had much success with children who have certain challenges such as autism due to its immediate gratification!</p>
