What happens in your child's School Toilet Map
- Your child spots the toilet sign near the classroom.
- A friendly grown-up shows your child the route and the handwashing sink.

- A little mix-up with the map brings a gentle, funny pause.
- Your child returns to class ready for the next activity.
How the first page could read
On your child's first school morning, the classroom felt full of new things: a coat peg, a lunch tray and a busy wall of pictures. Then your child noticed a small sign by the door. It showed a toilet and an arrow. “That might be useful,” thought your child.
Your child’s name, look and little details replace these words, and the whole story is written for their age.
Why this story works
Starting school brings plenty of new routines, and using an unfamiliar toilet can be one of them. This story keeps the focus on the practical steps children may wonder about: noticing the sign, telling a grown-up, walking to the loo, washing hands and returning to the classroom. Your child is not expected to get every step right at once. A small map gives the story a clear, memorable thread, while the gentle mix-up leaves room for a laugh without making accidents or worries the joke. The familiar school-day setting makes it well suited to children aged four to six who are preparing for their first classroom routine.
Reading it together
- Read the book before a school visit, pausing to talk through who your child could ask when they need the toilet.
- Point out the parts of the story that match your child’s school routine, such as putting up a hand or walking with a grown-up.
- Return to the funny map moment after an accident or a tricky day, and remind your child that learning routines takes practice.
Suggested art style: Storybook watercolour
Soft storybook watercolour makes the school setting feel familiar and calm while keeping the toilet map easy to follow. A sidekick idea: a cheerful folded map with wiggly arrows. You can pick any of the four styles and change the details in the form.

Questions
Is this personalised toilet confidence book suitable for a child starting school?
Yes. The story is written for children aged four to six and follows a school-day routine rather than potty practice at home. Your child sees where the toilet is, practises asking a grown-up for help, uses the loo and returns to the classroom, with a gentle reminder that new routines can take time.
Can the story include details that feel like your child's own school day?
When creating the book, you can share your child's name, age and a few little details, as well as choosing an art style and adventure. Their photo is used to draw them as the main character, so the school toilet map story is centred on your child and their own growing independence.
Can I see the book before I pay?
Yes. Your child’s cover and the first page of the story are made while you answer the questions, usually in under a minute, and you see them before checkout. You only pay if you love it.
How long does it take?
The digital book is usually ready about 10 minutes after you order. Printed books take 3 to 5 working days to print, then 3 to 7 days to post in the UK and US.
