When you are out and about, going for a family walk or going camping, then this disposable biodegradable travel potty (made from recycled cardboard) is perfect to pop in your travel bag and take along for those "uh oh, I need a poo! Lock the legs in to use it as a standalone potty or leave it in the open position using the legs to create handles that sit over a toilet seat. Some travel potties come with disposable bags which can just be thrown away, while others have removable bowls which are easy to clean out. I would suggest having replaceable liners to make the cardboard frame multiple-use whilst still being environmentally friendly.

It comes in lots of colourful character designs including a fox, bumblebee, ladybird, penguin and dinosaur so your child can choose their favourite. One of the trickiest parts about potty training is venturing into the outside world and finding a toilet on time.We understand that Mums are often so busy they only have one hand free to deal with their little ones, especially when toddlers can be so demanding. It is small enough to put in your bag for when you need it, plus the flask shape means you don’t need to find somewhere for your child to sit down like with traditional potties and it can even be used in the car on long journeys. Overall our MFM testers liked the quality and sturdiness, with a safety lock to secure it in place, but found fitting the bags a little bit tricky at first. We like that this potty can be used at home and on the go, so is ideal for children who get attached to certain things (like potties) and prefer consistency. The plastic potty folds down small and comes with its own convenient and hygienic drawstring bag to carry it round in.

This product is perfect for older children who are making the transition from potty to toilet, but still feel a little uncertain about sitting on adult-sized seats.After using, a specially designed closure element enables quick protection of the contents, and a high level of hygiene is retained - Tron also has handles. I felt confident that the contents wouldn't leak when I needed to take it away with me to find a bin.

It isn’t as discreet as some of the options on our list, but it will fit neatly in the bottom of most pushchairs.While every child reaches this point at different stages (some take a few days while others take a few weeks), the right potty is essential.
