So long, Paci!

By Dr. Paola Perrone

A solid and practical guide for parents, suggesting strategies and methods for dealing with that delicate phase of saying farewell to pacifiers, feeding bottles, thumb-sucking, and other harmful oral habits. The best time for our little ones to ditch the soother is by their first birthday, and so if your child is now two or three, it really is time to get down to work! The six illustrated stories included in this volume, with simple language suitable for children of three and over, will help your child identify with and project their emotions onto the characters who show how to take the plunge and do away with their pacifier, bottle, thumb-sucking, or mouth breathing. "So Long, Paci!" has become a firm favorite among Italian children and parents alike when it comes to kicking prolonged pacifier use and other harmful oral habits, and it is now available in other languages to help parents and babies all around the world. This book was written by a SPL/Speech Therapist who has a long firsthand experience of how certain habits can impact oral functions (including breathing, chewing, swallowing, and articulation). Here you will find lots of useful insights from her and numerous scientific references, providing an overview of the world of preventive oral care for children! Unhealthy oral habits will no longer be a mystery to you, and with the help of this book, your child too will soon be able to say "So Long, Paci" and do so with a smile!
