  • It's a phase and normal. Obviously it is harmful because of bacteria and parasites etc. 
    But it is normal. At that age a child discovers that they can "make something " and they try to figure out how their and others bodies work. It's a normal part of healthy development.  
    But ... dont let her play with animal poo.
