Thread: Can your child blow their nose?
Can your child blow their nose?
Jacob is 5 and can't, he has a cold at the mo and I've been trying to teach him but he can't get the hang just yet and just sniffs or blows out of his mouth
Is this a normal age for not being able to? Will be great when he can do it as he sounds so blocked up
Yeah Jamie can and has been able to for a good while now but apparently he's one of only a few his age that can do it, my friend's LO is 6 and he can't do it either :dunno:
my lo is 3 and she has been doing it for a good while now however i can remember learning to blow my own nose towards the end of primary school so think everyone is different.
My eldest cant do it he either sniffs up or makes noises out of his mouth and says i can't, youngest however has been doing it for quite a while now thought it was just my eldest lol weird eh?
My kids are 3yrs(just) and 20months they both can do it but my little sis couldnt till she was about 7!
i couldnt blow my nose till i was 18 at least
may sound odd but i had a load of nasal problems and they were at the era where they wouldnt remove adenoids.
my mum didnt believe i couldnt blow my nose and took me to the doctors.it was all so scientific i had to try blowing candles out with my nose and no i couldnt
so if your child sniffs and cant blow thier nose it may be because they genuinly cant
it is one of those things children can struggle to do.bit like whistling
