About
Are you a parent or school staff member looking to support children with feeding difficulties? Join us for our upcoming training on sensory and functional difficulties in feeding.
In this training, we will explore the common challenges that children may face when it comes to eating. We will discuss how sensory and functional difficulties can impact a child's development of eating skills, and how parents and caregivers can support children in overcoming these challenges.
We will provide strategies and environmental changes for addressing sensory difficulties, such as difficulty with the texture, taste, or smell of certain foods. We will also discuss functional difficulties, such as difficulty with using utensils, and will provide information on accommodations that can help children succeed at mealtime.
