Yeah, it's office safe, except for perhaps the end, which may seem a bit odd.

It's funny to see they chose a cat cartoon, since cats know where and how to go to the bathroom.

And the hand washing makes one think: Definitely not a Korean ad!

my toilet talks to me too.
and after i finish a poo, all of japan holds a giant celebration.

japan sometimes celebrates twice a day...sometimes once...sometimes they go a few days without celebrating. but they are guaranteed a celebration.

Do they still celebrate if the poo is big enough to plug the toilet?

Hey anything works!

I was lucky my daughter was super easy to trained and was out of nappies by the time she was 22 months but there are those who are not so lucky. I have friends whose kids simply refuse to use the toilet and would rather wet/soil themselves - even now at 3 years old!!!

There are materials like that published in Korea, too.
This isn't as shocking as what you showed us, but it proves my point:



Make a Poopoo




킁킁킁 킁킁킁 멍멍이 왜 그럴까?
Sniff sniff sniff, sniff sniff sniff, why is the dog doing that?

아, 응가하려고!
Oh, it made a poopoo!



쓱쓱쓱 팍팍팍 야옹이 왜 그럴까?
Rub rub rub, scratch scratch, scratch, why is the cat doing that?

아, 응가하려고!
Oh, it made a poopoo!



뿡뿡뿡 뿡뿡붕 엉덩이에서 방귀가 뿌웅!
Poot poot poot, poot poot poot, he is farting!

아기 왜 그럴까?
Why is the baby doing that?



아, 응가하려고!
Oh, he's making a poopoo!

아이, 우리 아기 응가, 참 예쁘네!
Oh, our baby made a poopoo! How nice!

That's "호비" ("Ho-Bee"), and it's translated into Korean. My daughter has a 호비 stuffed animal and loves this cartoon character. I'll have to show her this when she gets home from daycare - she'll love it!

It's pretty well-done and funny - great for kids to learn how to "go".

This is something totally different, and NOT work safe.

As a teacher, it cracked me up, though!

I checked out a toilet training book entitled 똥이 풍덩!
I would going to share that book also.
But I lost interest when I found that the original title was Once Upon a Potty and the author's name was Alona Frankel.
