4yr old boy won't stop humping his teddys

Our DS has taken to 'huffing'(cos its the panting noise he makes 🤣) his teddy's. He is really good and won't do it if other people are in the house and its only teddy's- not legs 🙈

But what is the correct response to this? Is it a case of its his hormones and let him go on with it as long as there are boundaries (as mentioned above) or should we be telling him off?

I don't know if it is more uncomfortable for us cos we know what it is, DH tells him off occasionally whereas I just let it go.

Just ignore it. He will get bored eventually. If you punish him etc he will want to do it more
