Question: If a baby eats dirt is it bad for their health?
My baby cousin has been eating dirt and we cannot get him to stop but if he keeps doing it we need to if its bad for him. I hope its not because our dirt is mostly small small very very tiny rocks and hes been eating them. We do not want them tearing up his digestive system!

its a kid thing and he'll grow out of it - its not great for him but its not bad for him. Kids need germs to build up an immunity and stop them developing allergies so I wouldn't worry about it too much unless he gets sick
Nah - lots of kids eat dirt - it's full of minerals.
(get it?)
Depends on what's in the dirt.
