Ohayo gozaimasu, Unchi-kun!

I'm not exactly looking forward to toilet training Kei, but it's obviously something we must eventually do. Fortunately, there are plenty of training aids out there to help us along.We already have The Gas We Pass: The Story of Farts as well as Everyone Poops, and I'm sure we'll probably pick up a couple of other titles as we toil along in our parenting endeavors.

It appears that there are some excellent training videos available in Japan—now we just need someone to dub these gems in English so we can use them with our daughter! Personally, I could deal with (and prefer) subtitles, but you know, um, she can't read yet... Still, she might be able to comprehend what's going on just by watching the video, though, so I might still show them to her when the time comes, if not only for comedic value.

Those are great. We have a bunch of Shimajiro tapes, and in one of them he goes inside a little ship and gets shrunk down to enter a kids body (think Incredible Journey) to help with the kid's constipation. They traveled through the entire intestinal tract, then shot some kind of energy beam at the unchi and it came out. Fascinating and gross at the same time.
