No, oral thrush is not contagious so it cannot be passed from one child to another child. Thrush is a yeast infection in the mouth caused by fungus.

It is possible for a child to get thrush from another child if they come into contact with the thrush-causing fungus Candida. Candida is commonly found in the mouth, and if a child with thrush shares toys, utensils, or engages in close contact with another child, there is a risk of transmission. Maintaining good hygiene practices and avoiding sharing items can help reduce the likelihood of spreading thrush.
