How to stop thumb sucking??

Here’s a great article with suggestions on what you can do: http://sg.theasianparent.com/how-to-break-your-kids-thumb-sucking-habit/2/ Providing a distraction such as engaging your child with something before he/she places his/her thumb into the mouth is quite effective. My cousin noticed that my niece often sucks her thumb when she is boring and just wandering around the house. She often gives her simple tasks to occupy her time. This helped reduce the amount of time she sucks her thumb. However, my niece still sucks thumb for comfort when she goes to bed and my cousin is still trying to find a way to help reduce that.
