My boys can NOT pee in the toilet!

Thread Starter 
Anyone have any clue what I can do to either improve these boys' aim or protect everything around the toilet? It is disgusting! I go in their bathroom and there are white stains on everything from the walls, to the floor and baseboards, even the laundry hamper and basket that holds tp on the back of the toilet. It is so gross and smells all the time in there. I don't know if one of them thinks peeing on stuff is a fun game or if they really just don't pay attention and have bad aim but it has to stop. I can't be scrubbing pee off of things everyday.

Ive made Austin sit on the pot while he pee's because i'm tired of my bathroom smelling like pee!

I'm not the one that pee's on the floor.. or all over the toilet for that matter!!!

Kyler will do that if he's not paying attention.

I'll have to look... but I know i've seen this somewhere:
They have stickers that you can put on the bottom of your toilet so the boys can aim at the stickers.
That might help.

Well, you've seen my bathroom and you've heard my "Hey! Don't aim that thing at me!" stories! Let me know when you figure it out!

Sink the cheerios!!!

Throw some cheerios or fruit loops in the toilet and tell them to sink them. Works every time.

waht about adding red or blue food coloring to the water in the toilet...that way when they pee in there, then they can see the water change color....

Or put cheerios in there, and see if the can "sink" the cheerios?

Make them start cleaning up the mess and maybe their aim will improve!

I used to use a ping pong ball in the toilet as a target, as it is light it will not go down the toilet when it is flushed, but the cheerio's sound like a good idea as well (I take it cheerio's are a circular breakfast food over here we call cocktail sausages cheerio's and I don't think they would work )

I have noticed if Brandon is in a hurry to go back to playing or whatever, he won't pay attention, and that is when he pees on the floor. We have to tell him to slow down and pay attention.

Let's put it this way... I work with all grown men. I go into the bathroom at any given time during the day and there is pee on the seat and on the floor. I am learning the aiming doesn't get any better with age.

You can use shelf liner and line the area and just throw it away everyother or every day. I have also used shower mats around the toilet area because I have the same problem. I have to bleach the floors once a week.

The boys are close to 5 and 6 years old and I'd really hate to have to acompany them into the bathroom or make some bathroom routine of getting the Cheerios out. I could maybe understand and do that if they were 3 and just learning to pee standing up but these boys are older and I'm not even aware of when they use the bathroom more than half of the time.
I do make them wipe the seat down if they pee on it but the walls and hamper? You can't even tell they pee'd on it for a day or two when it turns white. It is just disgusting and frustrating.

Oh I thought that when the cheerio's got soggy they flushed, I sure wouldn't want to be fishing urine soaked breakfast cereal out of the toilet
