CJ’s got the pee pee thing down pretty pat now, he just needs reminding. My hubby RB is a very creative guy. Since we met, one thing that has always amazed me is his ability to come up with alternate lyrics to songs within seconds. Some of my favorites are very much off color so I won’t write them here, but one of the cutest is something that some of you other parents might relate to. It’s appropriate for any age and is something we’ve been singing often. It’s a potty song, sung to the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
Tinkle tinkle, in the bowl
I am learning self control.

To the bathroom, oh so fast
Til this feeling starts to pass.

Tinkle, tinkle, til I’m done
Using the potty’s so much fun!

Not being one to enjoy being outdone, I sometimes come up with my own little songs. Here’s my answer to RB’s Twinkle Twinkle song.
Tinkle, tinkle, here’s the key
Every 30 minutes you must go potty.

Staying dry feels good and clean
Please don’t be a pee pee machine.

Stinkle, Stinkle, try to go poopie
Mommy dreams of a day that is pullup and wipe free.

Both of us think our own rhyme is better, so help us out and leave me a comment telling me which one you like best. While you’re leaving your comment, I’d love to hear any little songs you’re created or rewritten, or what songs you sing to or with your kids.
