We are planning to ditch the nappies on saturday so I went out and bought 2 trainer seats for the toilet from toysrus. they are plain white plasic and only cost
£4 each but they dont fit on the loo
I have been browsing the web and and spotted this Does anyone know how it fits on to the loo?? The other one went under the hindges and wouldnt fit.

I bought one from Mothercare which has handles on the sides as ds felt really unsecure on the normal ones without handles. Cost £12 but still in use today (he's now 5) and will be used again for dd (16 months).

The ones in your link just go on top of the normal toilet seat.

do they not click on or anything? I was worried about it sliping off

The one I have has another 'rim' beneath the toilet which stops it slipping off. I have had one that's similar to one in your link and they fit tightly so there is no room to slip off.
Just be careful if you have a ds - they don't provide a high enough 'wee' guard at the front and often my ds would have an accident over the top of the seat if he didn't push his widget down!

Yeah we have had that aready . He can sit on the normal seat and balances with one hand while using the other to press his 'widget' down. but now he needs two hands to get the toilet roll and he needs my help which he hates!!

The handles do sound good, but as long as it cant slip off i think it will be ok.

thanks!

We have the same mothercare one - the one with handles (and padding!) and it is the only one DD1 would use - money well spent.

It moves about very slightly on our loo seat but only a little bit. We tried slightly cheaper ones (similar to the toysrus ones you had I think) and she felt insecure on those as they moved too much.
