Melissa Joan Hart is about to face a new challenge. The mom-of-two is about to begin potty training her two-year-old son Mason and is teaming up with Pull-Ups training pants to share her experiences with this important milestone."I've been watching DVDs ... and meeting with experts and trying to figure out the potty training, but it really is different for every single kid," Hart said at The Playroom's First Anniversary benefiting the organization Friends of the Family. "You have to take what works for you and leave the rest behind."
"When Mason first showed signs that he was ready to use the potty, my husband and I were really excited and – more than anything – proud," Hart said in a statement about the projet. "Potty training is one of the first times I'll be able to act as a teacher to my son, and that adds a little pressure."
The first issue she's found in the process is finding the right reward for Mason when he has a potty success. "Normally if you do a high five with a kid, that should be enough of 'hey, you went on the potty! High five!' but Mason likes lots of celebration, it has to be all about him, so that's his thing," she tells People magazine. "What works as a reward? Sticker, stamps, candy ... We use Hot Wheels cars, but Hot Wheels only worked for a week and then we had to go back to candy and now we're at stickers."
