DS is 4 and still hasn't worked out how to blow is nose. Anyone got any tips. When i try and explain he simply blows through his mouth!

No advice, but bumping for you as DS is that same and my bogey-pulling technique does his head in.

My DS suddenly just got it at 4.7. Nothing I did it just clicked, so no advice sorry!

Sometimes it helps getting the child to try blowing a cotton wool ball across the table with their nose (mouth shut) so they learn to blow out, not in, and can SEE the difference iykwim. Probably best to try this when your ds doesn't have a cold!
