Because they know their going to regret saying allot of things they say later in life. So why not start off putting your foot in your mouth while you are a baby and get it out the way. lol... j/k
Because they r probably saying smart things then and since you can't really understand them they put they foot in their mouths because they think you do...lol Not sure really as u can tell....

Because they can. Babies try to put everything in their mouths. They see their feet, they grab their feet, they put them in their mouth, they discover that when they suck on their feet, they feel something in their feet, they figure out their feet are part of themselves. This is part of how babies learn about the world and how they figure out how much of the world is themselves (Hey, I felt that when I sucked it!) and how much is not themselves. (Don't you wish you could still get your foot to reach your mouth? Not to suck it, but to be that flexible!)

Simple, because they can. They are curious and feet in the mouth is just something to do to entertain themselves.

Literally, because they can.
When babies are born they are the most flexible and malleable they will ever be in their lives. Consequently, when that foot just flies up to the kid's mouth it does so without resistance or hesitation.

They actually have no clue they are doing it. It's just an new voluntary movement they make, then they see their foot. It goes straight into their mouth as babies best sense is their taste.

They are just curious and just at that stage where they are wanting to put things in their mouths. Could be teething also

They put everything else in their mouths, why not their feet? they are right there and mom doesn't take it away from them like everything else.
