Description

Help put a stop to toddlers’ nose picking.

We’ve all seen it—the nose-picking habit starts as early as the toddler years, and no child is the exception. Young children pick their noses for a variety of reasons, from colds to allergies to curiosity or boredom. This English-Spanish bilingual board book for toddlers and preschoolers is the answer to the age-old question, “How can I get my child not to pick, especially not in public?”

With gentle humor and kid-friendly support, this book helps guide little ones away from nose picking toward healthier habits, like using a tissue and washing their hands. Catchy words help children remember what to do; vibrant full-color illustrations bring the words to life. Throughout, the positive message shines through: noses are for breathing, sniffing, smelling . . . but not for picking!

A section for adults provides discussion and activity guides in both English and Spanish that reinforce the book’s message.

Best Behavior Series
Simple words and lively full-color illustrations guide children to choose positive behaviors. Select titles are available in two versions: a durable board book for ages 1–4 and an expanded paperback for ages 4–7. Bilingual board book and paperback editions of all titles also are available.
