Your Bobby the Bear questions, answered

Bobby is Rudie Baby's toilet training companion β€” a soft plush bear and a hardcover picture book called Bobby's Big Potty Adventure. The book follows Bobby as he figures out the potty, giving toddlers a familiar story they can relate to. The idea is to make the toilet feel less scary and more like something a friend has already done.

Bobby gives toddlers a way to process the experience of toilet training through story and play. Reading about Bobby using the potty normalises it. Some families use the bear as a prop β€” letting their toddler 'show Bobby' how to use the toilet. It is a low-pressure way to introduce the concept before or during active toilet training.

Bobby is designed for children aged approximately 1 to 4 years, covering the typical toilet training window. The book is simple, short, and picture-led, which suits toddlers who are just beginning to follow story narratives.
