Montessori Toilet Learning Pants | Potty Training Pants

If you are looking for Montessori toilet learning pants, we have recommendations for you! This list includes 100% cotton and organic cotton training pants for toilet-learning toddlers.

Phase 1 of Montessori toilet learning includes using cloth diapers, so your baby is aware of eliminating, and informing and involving your baby during diaper changes.

Phase 2 of Montessori toilet learning for toddlers begins when your child is around 12-months-old and walking. During Phase 2 of toilet learning, cloth training pants are worn and your child is given opportunities to use a small potty or toilet. For a brief explanation of the Montessori toilet learning process, see Sarah Moudry's book Toilet Awareness.

Features: Montessori Training Pants

There are many types of training pants on the market these days. Pull-up disposable diapers are sometimes called training pants, but that's not what we're talking about here. When we use the term "training pants" we are referring to reusable cloth training pants. They are basically underwear with extra padding to catch a small pee.

Here are some features to look for when selecting training pants for Montessori toilet learning:

• Cotton (or other natural fibers)
• Non-waterproof
• Pain white or simple design
• Easy to push down

Wearing 100% cotton training pants will help your child feel wet and maintain awareness of when he eliminates. Non-waterproof training pants help the parent or caregiver to be aware of misses. This will allow you to respond right away and help your child change into a clean dry pair. If you ever need the reassurance of a waterproof layer, you can add a wool soaker or shorts over the training pants.

For Montessori training pants, opt for solid white or a simple design. We are guiding our child to use the toilet because that is the proper place to eliminate. We don't need to coax our child with character-covered training pants.

The training pants should fit loosely enough that they are easy for your child to push down. The main reason for switching from cloth diapers to cloth training pants is to allow your child more independence in the toileting process.

It is helpful to keep a small basket of clean training pants in the bathroom, and a laundry basket for your child to fill with any wet trainers.
