Your child will be ready for the potty training exercise once it begins to communicate that it has to go to the toilet
. It could be an expression on its face or the fact that it comes and stands near you, if you notice that these actions are related with the need to using the potty then it's time to prepare a training schedule. More often then not, children will first communicate after soiling their diapers and then as they learn to control the bowels for a period of time they try to inform parents that they have to go. You can try to accelerate the process by talking to them; although children may not be able to speak by themselves, they have a remarkable facility for understanding language and the meaning behind words.
