Does anyone’s toddler still do this? He stopped and started doing this again with literally everything, play doh, tissue, who knows what he’s being eating at nursery.
Is this something of concern and I should check it out at the doctors?
My son is quite aware of what’s gross and dirty and what isn’t, and he’s not doing it to be honest! We just tried to tell him that nothing that’s in the street should be touched (just yesterday we were walking around and he saw a perfect bright red candy on the floor and stopped to look at it and looked at me, and I didn’t have to say anything and moved on!) I don’t think it’s anything to worry about but definitely keep focusing on giving clear boundaries (pick things up only at home, not outside!) and that might help :)
@Veronica thank you Veronica! I’ll have to keep being persistent! He doesn’t really listen atm!
@Kirst sounds very much like a 2yo 😬😬😬😬 good luck 😆 ♥️
