Try some kind of reward system, draw a smile face on their
hand or a sticker, or make a sticker chart and hang it in the
bathroom give him a sticker to put on the chart every time he
goes.

3's are usually ready, but the parents need to bring in about
5 pair of underwear and change of clothes/pants. I personally
do not believe in pull-ups. I feel the child needs to feel
the wetness and not like it to encourage them to stay dry and
go in the toilet instead
