Summertime!
When we were preparing to potty train Hayden, I tried to think of a big incentive for him once he was all done potty training (back when I was dreading a months-long battle toward the potty)—and I found it.
Swim lessons
Hayden latched on to that idea like no other, even though when I first mentioned it, it was the middle of winter. And from the day we potty trained him, he hardly let a day pass without asking if we were going swimming.
Like the mean mother that I am, I made him wait three whole weeks until lessons started at the city’s outdoor pool.
I think it was worth it:

Does he like it?

Oh yeah!
