You may not be aware of the
family toilet seats concept, but it becomes easy to understand once explained. The family seat is a simple design that allows all members of the family, both young and old, to share the same seat without have experiencing and difficulty or safety issues when using the bathroom.
These seats actually incorporate two different size toilet seats that can be used independently. The toilet seat sits on top of both of the seats. So you can use the main seat, and then pull the uppermost seat down to get a comfortable potty training style seat for the kids to use.
Not only does this save you the money and the time required to source a new toilet for your child, but also saves on the very limited space that bathrooms have, without compromising on comfort or durability.
The second seat that will be pulled down on top of the existing one has a broader rim and a smaller opening which when compounded with the border of the lower seat makes it ideal for use by children.
When my children were young, I found that they were at their happiest when they could take themselves off to the toilet on their own. And they also had far less accidents when we moved to the family toilet seat, as getting it ready for use was a very quick process.
There are a variety of these family style loo seats on offer, ranging from simple plastic models for the younger family, through to some nice looking wooden models for the family with older children.
These type of seats really do take a lot of the stress and hassle out of toilet training, allowing both children and parents to enjoy the journey, rather than being stress by it. Well worth the investment.
