Ahh, the love of a child with the ability to make parents crazy.
The child is exploring everything he can right now....peanuts are the favorite past time at the moment. Everything is amazing at this age.
This too shall pass, but in the meantime I think I would keep the peanuts put away...
Good luck, remember the fingerprints on the wall and the messes they leave only last for a short time ....enjoy every second.

Try toddlers and nostirls and buttons...I spent 2 hours in an emergency room while two pediatricians, 3 nurses, 5 technicians tried their hand at removing a clear button from my daughter's nose. The button went in straight and filled the nostril completely, it was difficult for even a tweezer to get between the wall of her nostril and the button to get it out. To make matters worse the button was clear so it wasn't easy to see.

When my daughter (who is 33) was nine we were at my in-laws and there were bushes with berries on them and my husband jokingly said she should try putting a berry up her nose. She was totally OLD enough to know better but she did it. She has never lived it down!
Last winter her daughter, who was 3 at the time, was having awful periods of being really stuffed up. It went on for several weeks. She took her to the doctor right away and she had antibiotics which didn't help. She took her back again and the doctor looked up her nose and saw it was red and swollen and said she thought she had a polyp and sent her to a specialist saying maybe they could shrink it with more drugs or it may have to be romoved. She took her to the specialist who after looking up her nose smiled and said to the nurse (spelling it out), "Can you bring me that
h-o-o-k?" Distracting her he used the hook to remove a small red bead! For real! We think it had been up there for almost a month. Naturally, her symptoms immediately disappeared. The silly kid never said a thing about doing it.
I ended up writing her a "book" calling it "Mackenzie's Bad, BAD Week" because a few days before the bead removal she was at a Christmas party with her older sister and leaned into a lit candle and caught her hair on fire to the horror of the hostess and other 26 guests. She singed some wispy hair off (it was in a pony tail which was good) and burned her ear. She put it out with her own little hand and burned that as well! She was not severely injured, TG. Then after the bead removal she was outside playing in the snow with her older sister and her friends and she tripped and fell and put her tooth through her lower lip. Also not serious but painful and bloody.
SO! Yes, kids like to put things up their noses. Fortunately they grow out of it.

My oldest son scared the life out of the entire church congrigation (sp) one evening after sticking a button up his nose. My hubby was the calm one and he calmed our son down and just had him hold one side of his nose and blow. Thankfully, it flew right out. I have no idea why kids do that.....curiosity I guess. I have an uncle who put a bean up his nose when he was little. He never told anyone about it and it started to sprout!!! LOL When the side of his nose started to swell, thats when his mom started questioning him and he finally "spilled the beans" and they had to take him to the ER to have it removed. LOL I still find that story funny

I never had that happen. Why are you even giving a toddler a choking hazard?

BECAUSE THEY LOVE TO STUFF THINGS IN THEIR NOSES, MY SON DID WHEN HE WAS TWO YEARS OLD. I HAD TO TAKE HIM TO THE DOCTORS TO GET IT REMOVED, BUT IT WASN'T A PEANUT IT WAS A BEAN.
