When your son is old enough to goto the bathroom alone and use the potty by itself, it is also old enough toimitate what their parents do after using the bathroom. For that I bring yousome tips to get kids to wash their hands after using the bathroom.
You let him see your usualroutine to go to the bathroom, including you see the way you wash your hands.If your child sees you doing that, you may begin to associate the cleaning ofhands with the process of using the bathroom. Do you reach the sink with asmall stool and help it with water and soap.
To reinforce this behavior, youcan give him a reward like a sticker, a star in a table of duties or a hug. Werecommend using separate rewards for toilet or urinal to wash the hands, so ifyou do one thing well, but not the other, yet feel you've accomplishedsomething.
To make it more fun, you candesignate a special paper or some towels to be used after hand washing afterusing the bathroom. After a while, wash your hands after using the bathroomwill become automatic. You should also teach them to wash their hands beforeeating and you must be a good model to do it too.
