Creating Positive Mealtimes

This Free Pre-Recorded presentation is geared toward families of children with special needs.

Is your child a picky eater? Is meal time stressful for your child and your family? Food is supposed to be fun and mealtimes are meant to be a positive social opportunity for the family. There are ways to increase and enhance your child’s positive experiences with food while also providing routine and allowing for exploration within comfortable boundaries.


This FREE pre-recorded presentation explores the foundations our sensory system plays in preparing us for eating and how to create the best scaffold for our children to experience positive mealtimes and exploration of foods. We will also discuss the red flags that indicate a child’s “picky eating” may actually be more extensive and what you can do if this is the case.
