My 4 yr old touches himself a lot he makes his penis erect?

Stimulation: This is common behavior for a 4 year old . This is generally their attempt at exploring their body and stimulating themselves. You should , however, insist that this type of behavior be done in private and never in public.

Passing stage: Children explore their body parts. It's a passing stage they go through. Don't make an issue of it.
