Hai..its definitely not a healthy habit as its prone to cause bleeds in brain for babies. At the same time its not true that babies have liquid brain. I recommend parental supervision while kids are entrrtaining toddlers or infants. Happy to help anytime. If you are happy with my reply, kindly rate it.
