Q. #asktheexpert Hello my son is 31 months old. Developmentally he is ahead of his peers especially in language & communication he is “miles ahead” (assessment by professional in his nursery) but he still puts toys / sand / non food items in his mouth - doesn’t swallow them but chews them.

What can we do to help please?
