Reasons why children like to pick their noses

Many women return to work three months after giving birth. Usually, the elderly help take care of the children, and women can only see their children after working outside for a whole day. In the long run, parents do not observe their children's habits carefully. Sometimes children's bad habits are not discovered for a long time. At this time, parents need to stop them in time to help their children quit bad habits. Let's find out why children like to pick their noses.

1. There is a reason why babies pick their noses

1. Physiological interest. Babies are born with curiosity and a strong desire to explore, including exploring their own bodies. They want to experience the magic of every part of their body. Maybe the nostrils are like a small cave to him, and he wants to know what is inside, so he puts his fingers inside.

3. Illness factors. Due to factors such as season and environmental hygiene, the baby's nose may have allergic symptoms, becoming dry and itchy. At this time, the baby can't help but pick it. If the runny nose is caused by a cold, the mucus will solidify and stick to the nostrils, making the baby feel uncomfortable and stimulating him to constantly pick his nose with his hands.

1. If the baby's nose picking is a bad habit, the mother should help him correct it in time. You can keep his little hands busy and play more parent-child games with him to make him forget about picking his nose during the games. You can also use words to teach him that picking his nose is a bad habit. After a long time, the baby will understand.

2. If the baby picks his nose because he feels uncomfortable, then the mother needs to help him with some care. You should wipe his nose frequently, ensure the humidity of the indoor environment, give your baby more fruits and water, and help your baby cut his nails and wash his hands frequently to avoid the spread of bacteria.
