VHS Movie Reviews of Once Upon a Potty for Him

Movie Review: Kinda Weird, But Works
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is very strange to watch, but for some reason it really seemed to work, at least for my child. Don't give up just because you don't like the shape of the potty. Give your kid some credit, he knows what they mean by the word potty. If they called it a loo or WC, he wouldn't get it, but a potty is a potty.

The body parts description caught me off guard, but it is important for any child to know what their parts are for and especially topical for one who is potty training.

My child seemed ready for a couple months but just wouldn't use the toilet, then after watching this several times one day, started using the toilet and hasn't turned back since.

Movie Review: Once Upon a Potty for Him
Summary: 5 Stars

Good tape for my son. He has a great attention span so it was a little short for him, but we just played it again so he could get the repition. He loves the story and video. Good tool in introducing the potty.

Movie Review: Absolutely wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars

My son starting potty training early. By the time he turned 2 we were completely done even at night. The video was helpful because the children are young like him! He related to them more than he would have a 3 year old. He loves the song "potty potty" and sings it all the time. This video turned potty time into a really fun time. When the other babies mouth potty potty he rolls with laughter. This is a must!!!!

Movie Review: Not for older potty-trainers
Summary: 2 Stars

A friend gave me this video hoping it would help train my reluctant 3-year-old. While he was very interested in the tape and even bopped to the song, it did not help him overall.

One, the children looked younger than 2 years old! So he did not relate on that level and kept referring to the children in the video as "babies" and "cute little babies!"

Two, the potty used is not the type of potty commonly used in the United States (at least in my opinion.) The part about what a potty is "not" for became redundant and boring for a child who didn't relate to that "what is it?" to begin with.

Three, the only reference to a true toilet was when Mommy poured the wee-wee into the toilet.

On the other hand, I read negative reviews about seeing the 'hole' in the cartoon fanny of Joshua. Well, I want raise my child to know his body parts -- as a child well-versed in their own body and its functions is statistically less likely to be targeted by a sex offender. I didn't think this reference was a big deal, and it even helped me teach my child about that particular body function.

I would only recommend this tape to those who are training children in the 1 to 2 year old range and using a similar potty. (It looks like a molded-to-underside bowl.)

Movie Review: This video will get any kid to use the potty
Summary: 5 Stars

My son was three and still didn't want to use the potty. He tried it from time to time but always wanted his diaper back on. Just when I thought all hope was lost I checked this video out from my local library. He loved this video and it didn't hurt that his name was Joshua too just like the little boy in the video. He watched this video three times a day for two weeks and then voila ... it just happened. I couldn't have done it without this video. It's a must for any parent and child. If only we had gotten it sooner!
