3 year old uses potty but won't pull down pants

My 3 year old son loves using his potty and has mostly managed to make it there without too many accidents - both for wees and poos. However, when we first started, we let him run around without any bottoms. Now that we are encouraging him to wear pants he still uses the potty but won't pull down his pants or trousers. Each time we have this accident I gently remind him to pull his pants down next time, and then we change his clothes and put the wet clothes in the washing machine.

Has anyone else had a similar problem??? Any advice about what to do next????

Put pants on a teddy then 'show' DS teddy being very clever and 'pulling' down pants before sitting on the potty.

Worked with me

Good luck
