Picky Eating

Does your child...

  • Have difficulty with oral motor skills including over stuffing, difficulty biting, or difficulty chewing
  • Have difficulty gaining weight
  • Cry and “fall apart” when presented with new foods
  • Refuse entire categories of food textures or nutritional groups
  • Eat different foods than the rest of the family at mealtimes
  • Have a restricted range or limited variety of food (usually less than 30 foods)
  • Eat the same food over and over, then suddenly stop eating that food


If you are concerned about your child's feeding habits or notice any of these signs, you should consider consulting with a feeding therapist who can evaluate your child's feeding skills and develop a customized treatment plan to address any underlying issues. It's important to note that every child is unique, and what works for one child may not work for another. A feeding therapist can help parents identify the best approach for their child based on their individual needs and challenges.
