Sneezing: Who says that sneezing spreads germs? Usually sneezing at nine months is allergic reaction or sinus reaction to dust, dirt, or other household or environmental things. Is the child ill?

Just use wipes : Where ever you can in knobs, phones, doors etc. They can't quite sneeze into their secrete space!!

Usual methods: Good hand washing. Cleaning surfaces with antibacterial cleansers. Keep him from sneezing directly at someone. Prevent him from sharing food & drinks with others. Same as you would for an adult.
