No matter how many times you check before you leave the house, your kid will always need a wee 10 minutes into the journey.
To help in such an emergency, may we introduce the pee cup – a portable potty for kids to pee into on-the-go, avoiding any potential accidents.
There are different styles for boys and girls, obviously: boys can pee into the elephant’s trunk, while there is an oval cup shape for girls. They both hold up to 500ml of liquid, and are 18cm tall.

The potty is lightweight and easy to carry, according to the company, which describes it as an “emergency toilet for camping and car travel”.
At just £6.99 on Amazon. Reviews from parents are high, as well: the potty has an average rating of 4.5/5 stars.
“We have found this is an excellent aid to potty training and can be used discreetly in fairly public places,” one person wrote. “Our boy took to it right away without any issues.”
Another commented: “Genius product. Very discreet and useful for the potty training phase especially. My five-year-old uses it when he is desperate and the only bathroom we have is occupied. My two-year-old uses this when he is too desperate to go upstairs to the bathroom.”
Another parent wrote: “This is an excellent idea to keep in the car! My three and five-year-olds are sometimes desperate to go and there are no toilets around. Rather than making them wait, they can use this. It’s very easy to use and the lid locks tight. We’ve had no leaks at all because the top is spill proof. It’s easy to take apart and wash too. A must if you are travelling in the car with kids.”
