Any tips on teaching DC how to wipe one's own bot?

What more can I add?

Bump

If you find out, let me know (5.5 years and still get the "Muuuuum...")

I fear that i have been indulging my 4.5 too long, so now she just thinks that that's how it is - ie mummies wipe bums. The other issue, of course, is my fear or returning to a big mess if I leave her to it. Guess I just need to give it a go, but if anyone does have any tips, do let us know!

Keen to know any ideas too

Well, dd1 needed precise instructions along the lines of:

Get about 4 sheets of loo roll and fold them over
Stick your bottom out a wee bit
Try and wipe right inbetween your bum cheeks
Keep wiping with fresh loo roll until it comes away clean

Dd2 thankfully worked it out for herself but I always told both of them that if they weren't sure if they were clean or not I would check over their work

However, even now at 9 and 6 you will hear me bellow...WASH YOUR HANDS!

Thanks all!
