One of my parenting hang-ups is potty training. For the life of me, I can not get my 3YO daughter to use the potty! I think I tried every trick in the book – rewards, stickers, calendars, motivation, and I hate to admit – frustration too. Still she would not. She knows how and will sometimes pee, but potty #2 is just a struggle. And I have a feeling I am not the only parent in the world that has this dilemma (raise your virtual hands, please!… please?). We can sure use all the help we can get.

Well… Playdate Kids just sponsored to give-away 10 copies of the award-winning book on potty training – “Island Potty Party”  (Mom’s Choice Award Winner). Each book includes a CD, sheet music and simple dance routine to reinforce the lessons.

How to join?

• In the comments, share your tips on getting toddlers to potty train.
• Additional entry will be given to those who link this contest post on their site! You need to include your post URL.
• Eligibility – one entry per person per email daily (so you get more entries if you come back tomorrow, but I need different tips each time).
• It’s open to residents of the US. If you have a blog, do post your URL as well, as I love to visit my readers’ sites and catch a conversation.

Contest ends 12:00 midnight EST on June 23, 2008 (Monday). Ten winners will be randomly chosen and announced via blog and email the week after. If the winner does not reply within 3 days, he/she forfeits her winnings and an alternate winner will be chosen.
