Wipes after the toilet

Most children: 4y 6m–6y

What it is

Manages wiping alone, with an adult checking at first. Girls wipe front to back.

Start preparing

  1. Flushable-free: teach a fixed number of sheets, folded, then check.
  2. Front to back for girls, every time — it prevents urine infections.
  3. Needed for school; practise well before first grade rather than in the last week.
