  • Patent number: 6203327
    Abstract: A toilet training system, using a board having a pre-printed path having a path beginning and a path end. The path is made up of step spaces and reward goal spaces. Initially, the parent and child select a reward type, and write the reward type in one of the reward spaces. When the child successfully uses the toilet, one of the step spaces is marked, providing visual indication to the child that they are progressing toward one of the reward spaces, and the reward symbolized thereby. When a child fails to successfully use the toilet, the last marked step space is erased to provide the child with a gentle reminder about the set back in toilet training. Once the step space immediately preceding that reward space has been reached by virtue of successful uses of the toilet, the child is rewarded with the previously chosen reward.
