Honestly if you are worried about them eating it I’d say younger lol. I did my daughter’s at 3 months old

I think I would if my daughter would sit still long enough for me to do it. She’s 3.5
But I’d also want some polish that’s safe

I did my daughter’s toes at like 5 months old. If your worried about chemicals check out piggy paint. It’s specifically for kids :blush:

I was painting my girls when they were 3-4 years old.

I paint my 2 yr old and she paints her own lol :laughing:

You have one short life to live, do whatever brings you joy and love :heart_eyes: You are a great Mom :heart:

If you are worried about them putting their fingers in their mouth, just start with their toes until they are older

I did at like a month and have since. We stopped hands once she started feeding herself and continued once she mastered utensils. But toes always have been done

I didn’t until she started doing it herself like a 14 yo. But I don’t do it myself either… :sweat_smile: However here is a Google’s answer

Whenever, if you’re worried about toxic polish, they have non toxic ones that won’t harm younger kids that want nails done but can’t keep hands out of their mouth.

I painted my son’s toes at a 3 months

She’s yours, so whenever you want momma!

I don’t see the rush in it tbh unless they are old enough to ask​:joy::joy:. I did my eldest daughters when she asked me about 18 month but my youngest who’s 2 nearly I’ve never painted hers she’s not asked me so why would I paint them​:joy::joy:

Use Piggy Paint from Target it’s completely safe!! I started when mine was about 1

Whenever you decide to. Each family will have their own preferences.

When she’s not putting them in her mouth

You can by polish that won’t harm an infant

I used to bite my toenails, as did my own child. Neither of us had polish until aged 3-4.

Whenever. My son is about to be 3 and likes his big toenail painted lol
