## Abstract

Systems and methods for managing toilet training of a person are provided. In one aspect, a method for managing toilet training of a person is provided. The method includes packaging a toilet training product within a container. The method also includes enclosing a post-sale image within the container. The post-sale image is configured to enable a set of enhanced functionality within a user computing device. The set of enhanced functionality is configured to track and record toilet training milestones achieved by the person.

providing the first set of enhanced functionality within the user computing device, the first set of enhanced functionality configured in a disabled status;
capturing the post-sale image using the camera device;
utilizing at least a portion of the base set of functionality to recognize the post-sale image after capturing the post-sale image; and
reconfiguring the first set of enhanced functionality to an enabled status based at least in part on recognizing the post-sale image.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The method in accordance with claim 2, further comprising:
providing a second set of enhanced functionality within the user computing device configured in a disabled status;
utilizing at least a portion of the first set of enhanced functionality to identify completion of a toilet training milestone; and
reconfiguring the second set of enhanced functionality to an enabled status based at least in part on identifying completion of the toilet training milestone.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The method in accordance with claim 3, wherein providing a second set of enhanced functionality further comprises providing a second set of enhanced functionality that includes at least one of games, music, video content, and augmented reality content for access by the person.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the post-sale image is further configured to cause the user computing device to display augmented reality content for use by the person as a reward for completing at least one toilet training milestone.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The method in accordance with claim 5, wherein the user computing device includes a processor coupled to a memory, a display device, and a camera device, the method further comprising:
capturing the post-sale image with the camera device;
recognizing the post-sale image after capturing the post-sale image; and
displaying augmented reality content, using the display device, based at least in part on recognizing the post-sale image.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The method in accordance with claim 1, further comprising:
providing a second image outside of the container,
wherein the second image is configured to interact with a base set of functionality stored within the user computing device, and display augmented reality content on a display device in communication with the user computing device.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the first set of enhanced functionality includes at least one of games, photos, videos, songs, music, simulated phone calls, training tips, training articles, augmented reality book, augmented reality content, simulated training character, rewards tracking, story book, and a portal to online training content.

### Claim 9

Computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, wherein, when executed by at least one processor, the computer-executable instructions cause the processor to:
provide a base set of functionality configured in an enabled status;
provide a first set of enhanced functionality configured in a disabled status, wherein the first set of enhanced functionality is configured to track and record toilet training milestones achieved by a person;
capture a post-sale image using a camera device in communication with the processor, the post-sale image associated with a toilet training product;
recognize the post-sale image upon capturing the post-sale image; and
reconfigure the first set of enhanced functionality to an enabled status based at least in part on recognizing the post-sale image.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The computer-readable storage media in accordance with claim 9, wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to:
provide a second set of enhanced functionality configured in a disabled status;
utilize at least a portion of the first set of enhanced functionality to identify completion of a toilet training milestone; and
reconfigure the second set of enhanced functionality to an enabled status based at least in part on identifying completion of the toilet training milestone.

### Claim 11 (depends on 9)

The computer-readable storage media in accordance with claim 9, wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to:
capture the post-sale image using the camera device;
recognize the post-sale image upon capturing the post-sale image; and
display augmented reality content, using a display device in communication with the processor, based at least in part on recognizing the post-sale image.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The computer-readable storage media in accordance with claim 11, wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to display the augmented reality content based at least in part on completion of the toilet training milestone.

### Claim 13 (depends on 9)

The computer-readable storage media in accordance with claim 9, wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to utilize at least a portion of the first set of enhanced functionality to alert the person based on at least one of elapsed time and scheduled time.

### Claim 14 (depends on 9)

The computer-readable storage media in accordance with claim 9, wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to provide a second set of enhanced functionality including at least one of music, videos, augmented reality content, and games.

### Claim 15

A system for managing toilet training of a person, the system comprising:
