Potty training gift
First Time Books puts their name in a potty book. We put their photo in one.
First Time Books’ Personalized Potty Time Book is a dedicated potty story personalized with a name and appearance choices (about $13.99 on their site). They say books are printed and shipped within 48 hours. Pick them if you want an affordable print potty book and you do not need the hero to look like a photo of your child.
Storybook Studio starts from one real photo. You can preview their cover before you pay. Interiors are illustrated after $15. The story is a potty-only book written for this child from your answers — free to begin, no card. Print is optional.

When First Time Books is the right pick
You want a low-price print potty book with their name and appearance options, a fast print-and-ship claim, and you do not need (or want) a photo upload.
When Storybook Studio is the right pick
You want the hero to look like your child, a potty story from your answers, free to begin, a cover you can preview before you pay, and a digital path with print optional.
Making this for someone else's child?
If you are a grandparent: ask the parents before you upload a photo. If they say no, First Time Books’ name-and-appearance options need no photo — or skip photo tools entirely. Our consent checklist walks through how to ask.
