Moms will love helping their daughter learn the all-important and exciting milestone of becoming potty trained with the “no water” and “no mess” Real Loving Baby Gotta Go Doll.  Just like a real toddler, the Gotta Go Doll goes both “number 1” (and “number 2!”) on her very own small potty, but, unlike real toddlers, there is no mess and no water—just realistic sights and sounds!. The doll can flush, knows to wash her hands and loves to do all the things a big girl does when she gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night. The bathroom area features potty, sink, towel and more.  (Fisher Price, Ages 3+)

What Canadian Parents are saying…

Our 21 month old twins were very anxious waiting for me to open the packaging.   When they were first able to hold the doll they were quite startled when the doll began to  move it’s arm and turn it’s head from side to side. For the first little while  they really didn’t want much to do with the doll and kept their distance but  still played with the toilet, sink and accessories. They enjoyed flushing the  toilet and seeing the pee and poo disappear and change into clear water.

After lunch I picked the doll up and pressed the button to hear the different phrases, as one of the girls ran over and from then on she wouldn’t part with it.  She enjoyed pressing the button to  hear the baby talk and would use the cup and pretend to give her a drink.  Our other daughter took a little time to warm up to all of the movements.

I was impressed with the toys; I really liked how the doll had a lot of different phrases that were accompanied by movements. Some of the accessories that came with the toy were pretty neat such as: the toilet changing from pee  & poo to clear water and the sound effects when brushing the dolls teeth and drinking from the cup.  — Steph & Bobby

Tips & Tricks worth mentioning…

I found opening the package to be a little frustrating and difficult.  There was just far too much tape and various plastic objects holding the toys in place. You may want to remove some of this before wrapping the gift so opening doesn’t take too long.  Another point worth mentioning, there are two white shelves that clip on. If you can set this up without the kids seeing they may leave them alone.  Our girls kept removing them once they realized they could.
