Tools for Tots: Picky Eaters - Developing Healthy Eating Habits and Behaviors at the Table
Eating is more than a necessary task to fuel our bodies. Eating at the table with family and friends is where relationship building and cultural connection occurs. It is where we can explore a variety of tastes and textures, and communication exchanges are made with others. Lots of kiddos have difficulty trying new or different foods, and many struggle just to keep their wiggly bodies seated for long enough to participate in snack and mealtimes. Join Child Inspired's pediatric therapists to learn positive tips and strategies to support kiddos (and their caregivers) at the table. Kids will have an opportunity to explore playful food art activities and prepare a fun, seasonal make-and-take.
What’s this program all about? Join us at the Lewes Public Library immediately after Children’s Story Time, for family-child workshops to explore and promote healthy development. While caregivers enjoy a brief presentation by a member of Child Inspired’s therapy team and are encouraged to voice concerns or share experiences, children are invited to participate in a hands-on, developmentally-appropriate activity conducted by one of Child Inspired’s child educators.
