Abstract

A device for small children and other little people to assist in the safe and comfortable use of standard-sized toilets. The device is either a unitary apparatus or three-piece apparatus formed with a middle, a first extension, and a second extension and formed to fit firmly against a toilet base in a manner that prevents sliding and movement. The device is hollow in such a manner that an odorless or pleasant-smelling liquid can be used to weight the device down while also emitting a pleasant smell for the restroom. A top and a bottom also are attached to the main body, first extension and second extension in order to provide additional safety.
