  • My son was a nightmare, he used to lick rain from benches, swallow beads, he once put FIVE peas up his nose (petite pois small ones) we never realised until he started sneezing them out... He has grown out of that stage now thankfully I just had to constantly warn pre-school and nursery about him i was scared he would do something silly when I wasn't there.  

  • Good to know that he has grown out of that. May I know at what age please? Thank you

  • I think he was about 4? It came to a stop so naturally I didn't really note when he stopped. I think it was towards the middle of his reception year. He has different habits now like he collects sticks and stones on our walks.
