Abstract: A potty training device has a backsplash/shield designed to attach and conform to an inner rim of a toilet bowl. The distal ends of the backsplash/shield include structures for fixedly connecting the backsplash to the inner rim of the toilet. The backsplash further has a structure fixedly attached to the front of the backsplash at or near the center, bottom of the backsplash that extends from the front of the backsplash. The structure defines a target for providing young boys to aim at while urinating standing up. The backsplash provides protection from urine deflected by the target. The backsplash and target may further define a sporting theme, for example, a basketball theme. The potty training device may include electronic sensors and/or displays.
