0:42 Understanding sensory preferences

  • Children may have different sensory responses to food, including preferences for certain textures, temperatures, and shapes.

  • It’s important to recognise these sensory properties and gradually introduce new foods to help children become more comfortable with them.

​

0:49 Presentation of food 

  • The colour and shape of food can significantly impact a child’s willingness to try it.

  • Consistency in how food is presented can help build familiarity and reduce resistance.

  • Engaging children in the food preparation process can make them more interested in trying new foods.

Be kind to yourself: Remember that it’s okay to have challenging days. Celebrate small victories and progress. Being patient and compassionate with yourself is just as important as being kind to your child.
