potty = small toilet (not connected to plumbing) that small children use

pee = peepee = number one = urine

poop = number two = solid excrement

to potty/toilet train a child – to teach a child to use a potty or toilet

to pass gas = the polite way for children and parents to describe flatulence (“fart” or “to fart” is rude, although it is used sometimes within a family)

“Bottom” is the most polite way to refer to the part people sit on. “Butt” is less polite but often used within a family.

“P.U.” is usually what children say when something smells bad.

toilet paper

Sentences:
