Answer:
Try putting your thumb under the pillow or put a strong flavor on the thumb so you won't want to suck it anymore. Also, it works for biting nails too.
Only put a natural rememdy on like lemon juice because no bite polishes have chemicals.
There are many ways to help stop thumb sucking but always remember to do it in a positive way and never shame a child. Thumb sucking can cause the teeth to be pushed forward and the palate of the mouth to raise, therefore changing the structure of the mouth and can even lead to speech problems...and possibly lead to braces. Talk to your dentist on the repercussions of thumb sucking. There are some simple things you can do to break the thumb sucking habit. A natural remedy is to use lemon juice on the thumb, but if your child is smart, they can wash it off. There is a fun product that kids love called "Thumbuddy To Love" that you can Google or get on Amazon. Remember to always use praise for the little accomplishments!
