What do you suggest if my four year old cousin is masturbating, is that unhealthy?

No, it's normal: From age 4-8 kids are exploring their bodies. It's when they play doctor - show me yours, I'll show you mine type stuff. They also touch body parts and find out touching certain places feels good. Nothing wrong with this. Now is time to teach him, though, that we have "private parts" and if we want to touch those parts we go in our room and shut the door. But it is his body and he can touch it!
