My 2 1/2 year old picks his nose how do I make him stop?

Answer 1

tell him to stop it. gently take his hands away from his nose and give him a tissue and teach him that this is how its done. make him wash his hands. u will have to do this several times.

yes it a phase, but he won't know its not proper unless u teach him the proper way to do it.

Answer 2

It's a phase he'll grow out of it. Children picking their nose and eating it, disgusting as that sounds, is actually a good thing because there are little antibodies in those lil suckers that make your kids immunity stronger ^_^ that I learned on the Discovery Channel.
