To clarify make sure the teddy "pees" and poos" into the potty...not the diaper. The clean up includes the cleaning of the potty and washing of hands afterwards. Lots of praise for the teddy for doing the deed. And say, "Don't you want to go to the potty just like teddy?" ect. Also, I have read never to phrase the invitation to the potty as a question. Eg. "Do you want to go and sit on the potty?" rather make it a firm statement...something that cannot be questioned or avoided like, "It's time to go and sit on the potty." Also, this is something we have been doing for a while...bring you child with you to the bathroom when you go the the potty. Involve her and show her what happens in there. Good luck!
