Help Needed with my 4 year old .......

My daughter is 4 and has been toilet trained for some time now. Since last summer, she started wetting herself, then put it down to being lazy especially as she was doing it more at home tho later she started doing whilst out and about. She started school, and apart from a couple of accidents has been fine. But at home, it's different story, she knows to go to the toilet and does go but then also wets herself and when she made to go, throws a tantrum.

It's doing my head, I'm just not sure what to do or if reward charts are the way to go

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks

Vanessa

Try and find out the reason - if she's anxious about something, she could be playing up for attention. It could just be that she's so engrossed in what she's doing at home that she doesn't want to interrupt her game to go to the toilet.

I would try a reward chart of some kind or a jar where she can put a bit of pasta in when she goes to the loo properly and then at the end of a week she can trade in the pasta she's earned for some kind of treat.
