Family Lifestyle | Kandoo – Number 2.. get it?

It seems like there’s an awareness month for everything these days, and June just happens to be Potty Training Awareness month. I can remember the days before Lyric was trained, reading all the books and blogs and articles on how to potty train in a weekend… easy as 1-2-3!

It was immediately easy to use, even for my fresh 2 year old, as well as durable! As the saying goes.. it gets better with time, and this is so true when it comes to the latest release from LeapFrog!
