The sun peeked gently through the window as little monkey Lala stretched in her cozy blanket. It was morning, and the birds were singing a soft song.
Lala yawned, rubbed her eyes, and then suddenly sat up straight. She remembered something important.
“I need to go potty!”
Without calling for Dad or waiting for help, Lala climbed down from her little bed, tail swishing with determination.
Step by step, she walked carefully to the bathroom—just like Mom had taught her. She opened the door, turned on the light, and hopped onto her tiny training toilet.
“I can do it all by myself!” she said proudly.
When she finished, Lala remembered the next steps: wipe, flush, and wash her hands. She even used her banana-scented soap and sang her “clean hands” song while scrubbing.
“All done!” Lala beamed, drying her hands with a soft towel.
Just as she stepped out of the bathroom, Dad peeked around the corner, surprised.
“Good morning, Lala! Did you already go potty?”
Lala nodded proudly. “All by myself!”
Dad scooped her up with a big smile. “You’re such a smart little monkey! I’m so proud of you!”
Lala giggled and hugged him tight. “I’m a big monkey now!”
They walked to the kitchen together, where Mom had warm pancakes and fruit waiting.
As she munched her breakfast, Lala couldn’t stop smiling. She had started her day like a champ—and all by herself!
From that day on, Lala made sure to visit the potty every morning, feeling braver and more grown-up with each try.
