We ordered Potty Scotty online after not being able to find any similar type dolls at any retailers. Potty Scotty is an anatomically correct, 'pee on demand' doll.
I had heard that the best way to potty train your child was to have THEM teach the doll how to do it. We were pretty excited to give it a try.
I purchased the doll that came with the book and DVD, which arrived within pretty good time and with all the accessories. I read the book it came with which I thought was a little vague as far as instructions (it's supposed to be a 'step' system where they are potty trained in 1 day). The video seemed was much more comprehensive and I was glad to have watched it also.
In using the doll, it seemed a little 'faulty' and would leak out of it's leg or mouth sometimes if you were trying to empty or fill it. This was a little inconvenient when you were trying to demonstrate how the doll was 'dry' at first and then would have an accident and be 'wet', just because the doll was wet from the start. Also, you are supposed to be able to confine yourself to an area of your house without any distractions so that your child can focus on the task at hand, but my small home doesn't really accommodate that so we ended up doing the training in the living room which proved very difficult and I could not get him to focus or show much interest at all in the doll. That isn't exactly the doll's fault, but it was an obstacle I wasn't really prepared for. I ended up doing a second day of training with the doll which worked out a little better. Overall, I think the video and the concept was more valuable than the doll itself. But this could just have been our individual experience and I would still recommend it as a tool for potty training.
