I am constantly on the mouthers here.
They only get to play with certain toys and I keep that area just for them. I have a large space though, so this is easy for me to do. They are told they only get to play with those toys and must stay in the "baby area" until they can show me they will keep fingers and toys out of their mouth.
Once they are 2, this is usually NOT fun for them anymore (baby toys), so they usually stop. I do allow for thumb sucking at nap, but that's the only time you won't hear me saying "fingers out" every time I see it.
