Accustoming a child to a pot is a responsible and vital activity, and therefore requires a maximum of tact, patience and optimism from the parents. Of course, there are children who start walking alone on the pot almost unnoticed by their parents, but this is rather an exception to the rules. One of the devices, which, if you believe in advertising, is designed to significantly alleviate the parental life and speed up this process is a musical pot. What is this "children's music pot" and whether it is necessary - let's understand together.
Musical pot for children - for and against
At first glance, the children's pot with music is not much different from their "silent" brethren. But unlike others, the pot with music is arranged in such a way that when a liquid hits the built-in sensor, the melody begins to play. Some models work right away as soon as the child sits down, and if the effort is successful, they publish approving sounds. In some cases, this really motivates the child, and he seeks to make his business as often as possible in the pot, in order to get a deserved music prize. Parents musical alarm also has a liking: do not once again pull thoughtfully sitting on the pot child. But, as it usually happens, these devices have significant disadvantages:
- Firstly, a loud, cheerful melody can frighten a kid in earnest, and he will boycott not only musical, but also ordinary pots. In this case, the accustoming to a pot will not only not accelerate, but significantly slow down.
- Secondly, a conditional reflex can appear on the encouraging melody of the child, which can serve as a bad service, he hears it in an inappropriate place for it. It will be very difficult to explain to the little one, why you can write to this music only at home, and not at a shopping center or at a matinee, for example.
- Thirdly, musical pots very often fail, starting to work by themselves. Especially unpleasant, if it happens at night or during the daytime sleep of the baby. Similar "jumps" of pots are treated more often only by extracting an electronic circuit from them.
- Fourth, a child who has got used to musical toys and in a pot starts to see only a toy, not considering it as a place for coping with need. A game on the pot, as you know, will lead to nothing good.
- Fifthly, a musical pot is a fairly expensive thing, and the funds spent for its purchase are unlikely to pay off.
