For Kids By Parents®, Inc. was created out of the need to solve a particularly annoying parenting problem with my oldest son in his potty training phase - peeing through the gap between the toilet seat and bowl. My attempt to solve this problem resulted in the creation of our 1st product, the P-flector®, which is our initial contribution to the juvenile products industry.
The P-flector® is a flexible urine shield that attaches to the underside of a toilet seat and blocks the gap between the toilet seat and bowl, preventing seated potty-training kids from peeing through the gap. The P-flector® therefore keeps potty training kids’ clothes and floors dry; say goodbye to cleaning up urine puddles, yellow stains down the front of the toilet or yellow stained floors in front of the toilet. The P-flector® is easy to attach, can be cleaned in place and saves parents and care-takers time and avoids the frustration of cleaning up the mess associated with this type of potty-training accident.
The P-flector® is made of a flexible material that allows it to conform to the shape of both flat bottom round and elongated toilet seats. It can also attach to some curved bottom seats. It’s attached to the seat with pressure sensitive double-sided tape and once attached, it can stay in place for extended periods of time; how long depends on individual use. While the tape is not permanent, additional tape is available to reapply it as needed.
The P-flector® has won the 2021 Mom’s Choice Award, Creative Child Magazine’s 2020 and 2019 Product of the Year Award in their Potty-Training Category. It was also a nominee for the All Baby & Child 2018 New Product Award of Distinction in the Parent Helpers Category. While we did not win this award, we were very happy with the nomination.
While the P-flector® was designed for potty training kids, For Kids By Parents®, Inc. has learned that individuals with special needs and seniors also use the P-flector®. We are happy to see that the P-flector® can benefit a wide range of users. The P-flector® (and additional tape) are available on Amazon.com.
