Its involuntary reflex which is quite common in children. You should try to correct at home by reminding the child whenever you see him doing this, it will take your efforts for helping him correct his habit, but still if he is not able to correct the problem till the age of 4yrs then we can give habit breaking appliances.
Next Steps
Relax yourself and simply keep on reminding your kid to keep his tongue inside.

Your son has a habit which is involuntary! We do have some habit breaking appliances , but at 2.7yrs , he is too young . It could be a temporary phase and just wait for it to pass. Many kids develop different kinds of habit which dissappear with age.You can get a check up done at your nearest centre to have a detailed look if you want.
Health Tips
As a mother of two sons, my advice is just wait for sometime, this shall pass.
