Does your child:
• Have trouble touching various non-preferred food items?
• Become anxious around mealtime or when new foods are presented?
• Limit their food choices to less than 1 or 2 foods in each food group?
• Struggle with a balanced diet due to lack of choices?
• Create tension at mealtimes due to restrictions in food options?
If you have answered yes to 3 or more of these questions and your child meets the following criteria:
• 4-6 years old
• Has an effective way to communicate
• Can follow basic 2 step direction in order to follow a simple 2-3 step recipe
