Hello Moms, Am going to india to visit my grandparents in a village and staying their with my kids for 10 days, my kids 7yr old are used to western toilets and my concern is how can they manage to do it doing in sitting position. any tips so i can prepare them other than the toilet concern, my kids will enjoy the time in village.
I understand the situation, I have been one of those clueless kids when visiting moms village. Though my grandmas house had one indian n one western even 20+ years back itself, some others houses or the road trip to go there was complicated. I have heard that it is one of the safest public toilets compared to a western toilet, but there have been some accidents for me as a kid, and I still find it complicated that I choose to just hold on. Since your kid is 7 years old, maybe show some videos n make it sound a lot fun. Make the whole thing positive. Try getting a stool that will keep her legs in that position in your current toilet or train her that sitting position. Make it sound like a fun thing that she may start looking forward to go there n try it.
