Honestly, we don't know what the problem was either. There was an excessive amount of toilet paper, but it flushed just fine.

I was sort of hoping for something more, too.

Sometimes, due to young children being not as strong, they might release the flush lever / button to quickly or not activate the flush lever / button all the way. That causes the tank of water to not completely release, and thus, making the toilet to not flush fully or not flush at all.
Other times, it's simply clogged. Speaking of clogged toilets, somehow, my older son used to often clog both our toilet at home, and also friends' and family's toilets. His toilet clogging trophies include my parents', father in law's, both of my 2 sister in laws', 2 of my cousins', 2 of wife's friends', 1 of my friends', twice when we were traveling in the hotel, and of course, numerous times at home. One time, our toilet got clogged so bad, the plunger wasn't able to solve the problem, and I went to Home Depot to buy a toilet auger to take care of it. That was also the first time I learned about the toilet auger.

One of my nostr friends commented that they had to replace their toilets with larger drain options, because their two year old was such a prolific clogger.

My guess was that she just didn't fully engage the lever, btw. That's something I've seen her do before.
