How to break your child finger sucking habit?
A youngster may find it challenging to quit the
habit of sucking their thumb. Recognize the
things you can do to help your child stop
thumb-sucking. Because of their intrinsic rooting
and sucking instincts, babies sometimes put their
thumbs or fingers in their mouths before they are
even born. Because it makes them feel secure,
some newborns may subsequently develop the habit
of thumb-sucking when they need to be calmed or
fall asleep. As parents, it is your
responsibility to take care of your child and do
something to stop this kind of activity. Here,
our Montessori Eagle Rock, CA, team has mentioned
some tips for you. Have a look

Use positive reinforcement When your child isn't
thumb-sucking, praise him or her or give him or
her tiny treats, like an additional bedtime story
or a trip to the park. Check that your
objectives, such as quitting thumb-sucking an
hour before bed, are realistic. Stickers can be
placed on a calendar to record the days your
youngster successfully resists the urge to thumb
suck.

Open up a dialogue Some kids just aren't aware
that thumb-sucking is an undesirable practice.
Ask your youngster why they curiously suck their
thumb as opposed to a critical one, of course.
How does it feel? Do they even understand what
they're doing? Is there anything else kids can do
to feel just as nice, such as embrace a stuffed
animal or count slowly to three?
5
Discuss with the child's pediatrician or
dentist Sometimes talking to your child's doctor
about why it's crucial to quit finger-sucking
will be more successful than talking to your
spouse or partner. Talk to your child You must
talk to your child about their thumb or finger
sucking. Help your youngster realize that you'll
be there to support them when they're ready to
quit. As a result of your encouragement, "they
will eventually come to you and say, Mommy I
don't want to suck my thumb anymore."

Making a rock clock Is it too easy to construct
a clock out of a paper plate? How about one made
of rocks? Sticks are used as the clock's hands,
and acrylic paint is used to decorate the pebbles
with numerals. Establish a timeline Draw a
timeline of the day on paper with markers, and
then have your preschooler practice setting the
clock to each hour.

Do not scold them Similar to the previous tip,
if you want to stop newborns from chewing on
their fingers, you shouldn't make fun of them or
put them under any kind of pressure. Your
youngster will become stressed out and may even
act out if you put too much pressure on them to
stop the habit.
