A. this is just a habit in your child which can be changed. you can either divert the child or you can talk with the child to change the habit. many times by regularx negative feedback mechanism you will be able to change the habit of the child. keep the child busy in something more interesting as well as helpful for overall child development you can take help of your pediatrician .

A. Hai good evening !! The best way is to engage baby in activities arranging toys,blocks colour wise,shape wise ,changing toys ,blocks or any things into one basket or bag to other ,choose colourful blocks,toys which makes kids interesting to know the colours. Give finger foods boiled veggies,ripen fruits into hands ,poha,mur mure they will pick and eat . Playing with utensils ,touching different textures from soft toys ,flash cards to flours,play dough with atta dough ,playing with water bath toys ,picking things,counting ,sorting things. But be careful there should not be any small,sharp objects which kids might put in mouth cause choking always be with baby while you engage baby in activities.
