Picky eaters

Playful ways to help picky eaters feel more comfortable with food - both at and away from the table!

Mealtimes with a picky eater can feel like a battle, but play can help take the pressure off! This playlist includes fun ways to encourage food exploration away from the table, from sensory food play to pretend cooking and grocery games. It also features playful strategies to make mealtimes smoother, like role-playing with toys or playful prompts to encourage tasting new foods. The goal? A more relaxed, positive experience with food for everyone!
