How to make kids stop poping their fingers?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Say it's not good!: I assume popping fingers means cracking knuckles. While never proven, it may lead to inflamed joints and discomfort if done too much. If you can explain this , some kids may stop. Also, keep their hands busy with a puzzle when they are bored- or put hands in pockets!
