How would you get your kiddo to stop sucking on their finger?

He is making it so raw I am just at a loss at what to do.

Nail biting polish, gloves, chew/simulation toys to start so the fingers can heal. Positive reinforcement and encouragement. Praise your child for stopping at times and reward him or her with extra playtime/stories/something your child finds enjoyable. Consistency.

Age?

@Karyll just turned 3

Fidget bite toys. Idk the right word for them but I just seen them on Amazon today when looking for some toys for my kids. They're like necklaces with bite fidgets on them. Depending on the age of your kiddo of course.

@Christa I think they are called sensory chew toys. I meant to type stimulation chew toys on my response but accidentally wrote simulation 🤦🏼‍♀️ lol same thing right 😆 I'm blaming the pregnancy brain.

@Tara yes! Those things! I'm sure it may help.
