We have been trying to get Maddie to finish potty training for quite a while now. A few weeks ago Smiths Marketplace had their Princess dolls on sale for $5 each and Maddie wanted all of them so badly. So I came up with the idea of her earning beans each time she went potty and then when she reached one of her goals (lines) she would get one of the dolls. So far she has earned her first doll (Little Mermaid bath doll) and has been doing really well ever since. Next she will earn Charlotte (from Princess and the Frog) and then Tiana. She is now in her new Princess and the Frog underwear and is doing really well. It took us a while to decide how many beans she gets each time, but have finally decided on 5 because the other amounts got her to her first goal too quickly. Hopefully by the time the jar is full she will be fully potty trained. Only having one in diapers will be so nice. YEA!!
