Thread: Chewing - do they grow out of it?

I think they just enjoy chewing really - I know that Malia loves to chew on straws and they all like to carry things around in their mouths.

You could try using a squirty water bottle every time he starts chewing but that won't work if there are things he is allowed to chew - he will just get confused.

You could check his teeth and gums over to make sure all looks OK as if he is in discomfort or having big teeth still coming through, that could make him want to chew more.
