The Miracle Blanket is definitely worth trying.  In the hospital, the baby is swaddled when going to sleep.  This is serious swaddling but helps the kid not jerk and wake themselves up.  It is definitely worth trying if your baby is not sleeping well.  We used it with Jacob and now Allie.

• Aim to have it down by the time they are three.  
• Start talking about how cool it is when they are two.  
• Tell them they will get a toy if they go poop on the potty.  
• Stick them on there in the morning right after they wake up.  Often they will pee.  
• Go with them and get them new underwear from Target or Wal-Mart and talk about how cool it is.  (Wash it and pull off the tags in the back so it is ready).  
• When they pee and poop on the potty, cheer like crazy.  Immediately go out and get a toy.  Matchbox car (99 cents) for younger boy.  It was an action figure for the older one.  
• We don't mess with the little potties but that is another option.  
• Get a stool so they can climb up and get on the potty and so they can wash their hands.  
• If they are a boy, they really need not touch their penis.  That is counterproductive to peeing.  
• If they don't pee within 30 seconds, let them get off.  Make them feel like this is no big deal.  "I sit, I pee, I get off, I wash my hands, I'm back playing with my toys."  

When our boys were 1 1/2 year old and 3 year old, they loved playing with balloons and beach balls.  They were great for soccer.  We had 16" beach balls.
