Baby seat on the toilet: how to make the toilet comfortable
All modern sanitary appliances are designed so that they can be used with maximum comfort by an adult. But what if the growing-up child in the family no longer fits in the pot, but still falls into the toilet bowl, which is wide for him? Of course, you can arrange an individual toilet for yourself with your own hands, but it is better and cheaper to purchase a stationary or folding child seat on the toilet.

Own toilet or baby toilet seat
Children grow up quickly. And if yesterday your baby used a pot for natural needs, then today he needs a toilet for this. But you need to understand that these sanitary devices designed for adults are absolutely not suitable for a child.

There are two ways to solve the problem:
- set for the younger generation own toilet in the toilet;
- buy and put the seat on the toilet with a child liner or other similar design.
The first option is quite costly and time consuming. For a sanitary device, although a child’s one, it is necessary to equip a room, carry out the sewage system, plumbing and so on.
This can only afford wealthy families living in spacious homes and not lacking free space. In this case, of course, the children's seat on the toilet is not needed. (See also the article Lid-bidet for toilet bowl: features.)
Note! The disadvantage of this decision is that children will sooner or later grow up and begin to use the sanitary device for adults. Consequently, you will have to bear the cost of dismantling the previously installed fixture, the need for which has disappeared.

Therefore, the above method of solving the issue is used extremely rarely. Most of the parents simply buy and install the toilet seat for the toilet with a child seat. It is easily mounted and cleaned, its price is low, and reliability and efficiency are time tested. (See also the article Anti-Splash Toilet. Features.)
Commercially available cushions for the toilet for children are distinguished by the following features:
- Easy to install and remove.. Due to this, the toilet in the toilet can be used by both adults and small inhabitants of the apartment.
- Safe for health. A modern toilet seat with a child’s seat for the toilet seat is made from materials that do not harm the baby’s body, and its design protects the child from injury if it is used improperly (pinching a finger, falling, etc.).
- Economical. Sitting on the toilet for children will cost much less than a separate plumbing fixture.

Note! The cost of the items described directly depends on the materials from which they are made, the complexity of the design and additional accessories. For example, there is a children's soft toilet seat, the price of which is higher than conventional polymer counterparts.
- Easy to install. They do not need to be connected to the sewer and water supply. The lid on the toilet with a child seat is simply mounted on a plumbing fixture, after which it is completely ready for use.
Baby lining on the toilet
Species
Specialized stores have a choice of such a wide range of products that even the most demanding customer will select a toilet seat with a child seat to his liking.
The table below will help you understand the existing varieties and make the right choice.

View | Description |
Classic | It looks like a circle for adults, but it is smaller. For its manufacture can be used various materials. Depending on this, the surface is soft and hard. Can be installed under and above the adult circle. The latter option is preferable in terms of sanitation. |
Anatomical | The lining is a special form with support for the back (as on pots). It is made of special soft rubber and is mounted on the toilet bowl with special clamps. On the anatomical pad on the toilet, the baby feels very comfortable. |
Attachment | The most convenient option, but expensive. The upper part is similar to other types of child seats, but it is mounted not on the toilet, but on special legs. In addition, the design is equipped with steps for ease of use. The advantage of this model is that the child is absolutely not in contact with the surface of the toilet. The height of the seat and treads is adjustable. In addition, the kit includes a container for feces, so the device can be used without a toilet bowl (for very young children). |
Road | This model is used in cases where the child needs to use a public toilet. A folding toilet seat for children does not take up much space in the luggage, but it helps the child to cope with the natural needs of public restrooms. All folding seats are adjustable in shape and size. Some models have a container for collecting feces. |

Tip! Buying a seat (especially for travel), do not forget about the disinfectant solution. After using the lining, it is necessary to wipe it with a liquid to get rid of pathogenic microbes that can harm the health of the child.

- Dimensions. Before buying, you need to make sure that the purchased model of the lining will suit your baby. In addition, you should definitely check whether it is possible to install the pad on your toilet. It is better to remove the dimensions from the thick of the toilet in your closet or make a paper template for fitting.

- Functionality. The main selection criterion is the convenience and safety of the child. The decorative component should not be your choice. In addition, it is advisable not to purchase products painted with paint or made of materials hazardous to the human body.
