How do you get your preschooler to stop biting their nails? I have tried the bitter nail polish and it did not work for us.

Here are some ways to try and see which method works for your child. - give her some small stuff to chew on to curb that impulse to bite. Eg. pumpkin seeds, raisins, etc. - promise her a nice manicure if she grows her nails longer - Protect the nails by covering them with cool neon bandages during times when she nibbles - Give her an emery board so that she can file her nails if the urge to bite is there. I hope one of the methods above work. :)
