Ew!! </p> <p>DS can't blow his nose. When the snot gets to his upper lip, he'll run to me and tell me "mama! Nosey!" I've been sick the past 3 months and blow my nose a million times a day. DS knows what I'm doing, but doesn't do it himself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377809 Fri, 04 Dec 2015 08:07:07 +0000 MrsRcCar 2377809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>N is great at blowing his nose! He is even better about throwing away the used tissue all by himself! Now if I could get E to blow into a tissue instead of his hands we would be winning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377741 Fri, 04 Dec 2015 02:43:27 +0000 Cherrybee 2377741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, my MIL taught her.

She jammed a raisin in her nose the other night so I held the opposite nostril down and instructed her to blow. She just sucked it up further. So, that was fun. And now I know lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377526 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 21:20:10 +0000 Alba4 2377526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kid is 2 and he can blow his nose, but we hold the tissue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377521 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 21:18:42 +0000 iluvboba637 2377521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS is 2yrs 9 months.

He's now accustomed to making the shhh sound when he pees. Helpful when I need him to pee before leaving the house shortly after he had just peed already. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377451 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 20:17:10 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 2377451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She just learned- I didn't teach her, she just surprised me last week when her nose was runny. So awesome- I hate constant runny noses and she hated being suctioned out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377398 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 19:28:09 +0000 gingerbebe 2377398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: yeah it's stuff I never realized they taught through verbalizations when I was growing up. Blowing nose is HNNNNNG!!! Or Hmmmmmph! And spitting is TOO! TOO!! And when potty training, they say SHHHHHHH and have the kids say it when they are peeing - it to replicate the sound of running water. They also tell kids to say UNNNNNGA when they poop to teach them how to push on the potty. so as toddlers Korean kids say they need to go she or unga. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377392 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 19:22:08 +0000 sorrycharlie 2377392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gingerbebe: that is so cool! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377391 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 19:21:58 +0000 sorrycharlie 2377391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: hahaha O does the same thing. she gets her own designated box now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377270 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 16:45:58 +0000 KT326 2377270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 3.5 and I think with the next cold he will (hopefully!) figure it out. He hasn't had a runny nose for awhile so I know we are due for our next big cold. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377258 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 16:39:09 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2377258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>L figured it out at ten months. Game changer. Except she'll put her used tissues back in the box. Gross! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377235 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 16:22:16 +0000 Pirouette 2377235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes, thank goodness! this was possibly my favorite milestone. Hated the nosefrieda!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377226 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 16:14:32 +0000 gingerbebe 2377226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is something Korean grandmas teach kids when they are young and I never really noticed or cared until I had my own kid who's 15 months old and I cannot WAIT for him to learn since he has a cold right now and we have to do a two-man pindown for Nose Frida-ing. He's not super verbal yet, but as soon as he is we're totally going to be training him! (In Korea, they hold the tissue up to the kid's nose and tell them to go "Hmmmph!" a bunch of times so they kinda learn to verbalize the sensation of noseblowing). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377126 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 15:18:51 +0000 Foodnerd81 2377126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes she figured out how to blow before two- so so helpful!! I have to hold the tissue or she will just smear snot all over her face, but it's a game changer. Sometimes she even tells me she needs to blow her nose. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377094 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 15:04:11 +0000 erinpye 2377094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, my 3 year old has been able to for a long time. Even my 21 month old has been able to for a while, which was both surprising and very helpful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377084 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 15:00:25 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2377084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He's 20 months and pretends too 😂 He saw my step dad do it. So everytime he pretends to blow his nose he says "papa!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377083 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 14:59:37 +0000 AB810 2377083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She figured it out around 18 months. I hold the tissue though. Way better than the nose frieda, which made her scream bloody murder. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377036 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 14:38:24 +0000 mediagirl 2377036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She can blow but I hold the tissue for her normally. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377028 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 14:35:53 +0000 lamariniere 2377028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS didn't figure it out until about 3.5. My DD could do it at 16 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377019 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 14:33:48 +0000 regberadaisy 2377019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, she's known since before last winter. So before 2.5. One of the many tricks daddy taught her! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377013 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 14:31:56 +0000 Mamasig 2377013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes it's great. He gets the tissues and blows til he's done. It's the little milestones. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-toddlerpreschooler-know-how-to-blow-her-nose#post-2377006 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 14:30:00 +0000 sorrycharlie 2377006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my three year old just started being able to blow her nose. it is WAY helpful. last cold, she was a gross mess of congestion and runny nose - and obviously a little old to be suctioned out. boogie wipes were a pain too, because while great with a dry stuffy nose, they just make a mess of runny noses IMO!</p> <p>now she can actually blow her nose until she's good..for the time being. however..she brings me the tissue and I have to be the one holding the tissue though...lovely for me. </p> <p>does your LO blow their nose? </p>
