You should start potty training with the seat that fits onto the adult toilet. It’s much easier to transition your child. I recommend it, because it has two steps up with handles. Your child, on their own, can turn themselves around and feel secure on the adult toilet. And they can also hold onto the handles. There is also the other option, which is a potty seat that sits on the floor. That is good for children that have fears of getting up onto the big toilet. The one problem with that is that you have to clean the toilet and I like the parent being able to have it the easiest way possible. And so it’s much easier if your child can sit on the adult toilet. Simplify your life, parents.
