Understanding Biting Behaviour Checklist

An at-a-glance checklist for biting behaviour, with suggested support strategies.

Biting is a common behaviour, particularly amongst young children. There can be a whole range of underlying factors, including relieving pain, seeking sensory input, communicating a need, or expressing emotion.

Use this simple, at-a-glance checklist to help you identify the underlying causes and consider appropriate alternatives. This resource could be displayed in a staff room to remind staff teams about common triggers for this behaviour, along with suggested support strategies.

Read our blog about biting behaviour, or download our guide. We also have information for parents and carers.
