Abstract
This invention relates to the field of absorbent articles in general, and more particularly to absorbent articles that have wetness/dryness indicators disposed thereon. Preferably, the disposable absorbent article, for example, a training pant, includes a disappearing wetness/dryness indicator that disappears when the article is wetted, and an appearing wetness/dryness indicator that appears when the article is wetted. The wetness/dryness indicators preferably allow a caregiver to interact with a child to promote toilet training. The wetness/dryness indicators are graphic elements that may or may not be related to one another, and that may or may not be related to other graphic elements on the article.
