Spray ’N Go: Poo-Pourri Potty Spray

Potty-training simply isn't pretty. It doesn't matter if you have adorable reward stickers of smiley faces and kittens, or ruffle-trimmed undies to entice your little one to do her business in the bathroom. Sometimes, kids just don't want to go when they have to go (sometimes?). If you hit any bumps in the road in that otherwise smooth journey from potty to panties, you'll appreciate any little clever little tricks to get the job done. We're getting a kick out of the Super Dooper Pooper Before-You-Go Spray from Poo~Pourri. (If you're an astute Walnut reader, that name may ring a bell since we reported on their Poo~Pourri Santa spray just last month.) Super-sensitive tots who turn up their cute little noses at the slightest unpleasant odor will love the idea of "scenting" their seat before sitting down. Simply mist the spray, let them do their thing and flush. You'll instantly smell the citrus notes of grapefruit, orange and ylang-ylang; these scents are not only pleasing on little nostrils, but they produce a calming effect during this somewhat stressful part of parenting. Who wouldn't benefit from a little aromatherapy, anyway?

In a Nutshell: Potty-training got you down? Perhaps one spray of this uplifting scent may just get your little one to go more often. And if the stress of it all makes you want to pack your bags, the glorious citrus smell will make you feel like you're in sunny Florida...even if it's only in your mind.
