Today I Learned

WHAT I LEARNED TODAY- when you want a child to try new food 1) kiss it, 2) bite it, 3) put a bite in your mouth but you can spit it out 4) chew it but you can then spit it out 5) chew & swallow. This could take a month, make sure they are comfortable at one stage before moving to the next. I know this is for severely impaired children but I think it's good for all children. THAT'S WHAT I LEARNED!

  1. Kiss it? Now why didn't I think of that? Alaina spent 15 minutes kissing the table cloth during supper 2 days ago. She would love this process.

  2. Very cool. I'll have to remember that when the kids refuse new veggies. Kiss it! Awesome.
