Yes, a child who is 2 and a half years old can have thrush. If you notice white patches in their mouth that do not easily wipe away, you can get a cream called Canesten™ from the pharmacy to apply in their mouth. If the child is breastfed, it's important for the mother to also receive treatment on her nipples.
