Other than the fact that the name is just gosh darn cute, the Little Looster is a pretty good idea! I was sent one for review purposes and for the heck of it, had my daughter try it out for a while. She is fully potty trained but she is still short.
The Little Looster is a stool that wraps around the toilet and supports your child’s legs while you are potty training. I didn’t have the problem with my son, but I really could have used this product with my daughter. She didn’t have a good sense of balance on the toilet when training, and because this wraps around the loo, it is incredibly sturdy for little legs to support themselves.
One of the main parts of potty training is giving kids a sense of security and safety on the toilet and this definitely helps. I also am one of those parents who loathed the small potties and quickly stopped using it with my first child and never bothered with my second at all. This is perfect for parents who also want to train right on the normal toilet instead of little plastic potties.
It also is narrow enough that adults don’t have to move the stool to use the facilities either, a huge bonus for those who don’t have a bathroom to dedicate solely to the purpose of potty training.
I will be sending my Little Looster for my sister to use with my nephew and I am sure that it will be an invaluable resource for her, since potty training is hard enough as it is.
