So this has noting to do with tech but being a parent and a boy (but not the parent of a boy) I can be very sympathetic to the cause of Troll On The Bowl. Not only that but it’s Saturday and this just seemed like a great Saturday story.

Troll on the Bowl was designed by a father of three boys with one thing in mind, keeping the pee pee in the potty. Sure you may be laughing right now, or maybe you just grimaced at the thought of us mentioning pee pee and potties on Techfaster, but it’s a serious issue. Little boys (and I was one of them at one point in time) need to learn at an early age the importance of keeping the pee pee in the potty (heck and lifting the seat as well).

Troll On The Bowl takes a cue from the explosive phenomenon that is elf on the shelf. There is a book and a troll. The book tells the story of why it’s important to keep the pee pee in the potty and then the troll is there to help guide your children to aim high (well low) and get the pee pee in the potty,hence saving mom and dad time cleaning and keeping the bathroom clean and bright.

After parents initially read the story to the children it’s sure to become a classic, just as popular as Good Night Moon, but with purpose, right? The troll then moves to his spot, on top of the back of the toilet. There his little troll eyes can watch and make sure that the boys are keeping their aim straight.

The troll can be incorporated into gamifying the experience as well (did I just say gamifying in a story about keeping pee pee in the potty?). The troll can leave notes for the children and then perhaps put cheerios or fruit loops into the potty for aim. What boy doesn’t like a good game of target practice. The troll can also reward the boys for great aim and keeping it clean.

Really I thought that the idea was a great way of tackling a task that parents have been struggling with since the invention of the indoor toilet in the 1880s.
