I'd stop that behaviour if you can, I'm not sure how old your child is, but it's easier to have a dog that doesn't beg or steal from the children, once kids walk around with food.
Our dogs are never allowed in the kitchen if we are preparing food, and they know this, so either sit in their bed or sit by the door. Barking would result in time out.
Something I've not tried before, but heard about is teaching a dog to go to a piece of cloth (small square) then using that material or one like it, in different places. So you can direct your dog to where you want to place him. Ours have always been taught stay, so would stay where we told them, but I liked this idea for teaching a young dog.
Hope whatever you decide to do, works.
