Potty training and floaters
… not floater floaters, but bath toys dropped into the loo to act as little boys targets.
Perhap, if you’ve boys in the house, you may have noticed puddles forming around the loo. Aiming is an acquired skill that takes some of us well into our mid-twenties to achieve, but it is possible to develop it earlier. Find an old bath toy, not too big and not too u-bend blocking small, and drop it into the bowl. It’s kind of cruel to use rubber duckies, so I plumped for a funny floating monster thing that came in a bar of gooey soap. Then give the command to sink it. Little boys concentration comes to the fore, and no more puddles to be seen.
To clean, simply flush. We use one of those in bowl germ nuking tablets, and they don’t seem to dissolve the floaters - at least of the plastic variety. Though a year or so back I did have to manually unblock a lodged floater that was a little too small for purpose.
Enjoy your puddle free home.
