Potty Time Visual Routine

$1.00

A picture guide for the bathroom, one step at a time: pants down, sit, blow don’t push, wipe, flush, wash hands.

What’s inside

  • 1 page: six numbered picture steps and an OT tip (feet up on a little stool, knees above the hips, makes everything easier)

Skills it builds

  • Following a routine independently
  • Sequencing steps
  • Toileting and hand-washing independence
  • Visual support for transitions

How to use

Print, laminate and tape it at child height next to the toilet. Point to each step as you go, then let your child lead and tap the steps themselves. Keep the words the same every time. Prep time: 2 minutes.

You’ll need

A printer and a laminator or sheet protector. A little stool for the feet.

From a pediatric OT

Made by Ms. Aviv, a licensed pediatric occupational therapist, and used with real kids before it reaches you. Print-ready PDF on US Letter (prints on A4 with “fit to page”).
