Hey everybody. Today’s video is going to be about ways to decrease mealtime stress, especially for our hesitant eaters. This video is for you if your child maybe has a more limited number of foods that they feel comfortable with. Maybe they’re easily overwhelmed with new foods. This video is especially for you if you find yourself dreading putting food on the table. Not because you don’t like cooking, but because you’re not sure how your child’s going to react. You don’t know if they’re going to eat what you made for them, if they’re going to eat anything at all, or are they going to have a meltdown? Are they going to throw food? Is it going to ruin the mealtime for the entire family? So, if this has become a sort of daily stressor for you, I am hopeful that this video will give you some ways to help make that, at least make that an easier part of your day.

If your child is learning to communicate with AAC, one of the most powerful things that you can do is model language for them in natural ways throughout the day.

My name is Andrea Gibson. This video today is going to be a little bit different than some of the others that you’ve seen here on our resource library.
