I believe many parents have seen their babies love to suck their little fingers, which looks very cute. Usually around the age of one, this habit will gradually disappear, but if the baby is older and still retains this habit, then it needs to be quit. How can the baby quit the habit of sucking fingers?
1. Shift attention. Sometimes when a baby's attention is overly focused, such as while watching TV, they may exhibit finger biting behavior. At this time, parents can shift their baby's attention, such as taking them out for a walk or playing with them, which will make them forget about sucking their fingers.
2. Give appropriate rewards. Children like to receive praise, so parents can create a red flower chart for their babies, requiring them not to suck their fingers. If they can do it in a day, they can get a little red flower, and the children will work hard to change this bad habit.
3. Gentle reminder. When a baby shows finger sucking behavior, the mother can use her eyes to remind the baby that this is not right. Her language should not be too harsh, and she should try to be gentle, but her eyes must be stern.
4. Spend more time with children. Parents nowadays are too busy and rarely accompany their children. When children feel bored or under too much pressure, they will resort to sucking their fingers to relieve this emotion. Therefore, parents may want to spend more time with their children and not always think that working hard and earning more money is the best for them. In fact, a child's growth only happens once, and missing it is missing it.
