Selective eating may refer to refusal of whole food groups, show reluctance with trying or introduction of new food, and have a consistently smaller food range
It is common for children to hit a developmental stage where they become more selective, will eat one food one day and not the next, etc.
Selective Eating is typically an ongoing challenge with a limited food range
KidsInclusive has a 3 part pre-recorded video series of our Understanding Food Selectivity workshop. These videos will cover concepts such as why your child may be selective eating, setting up a positive mealtime routine and environment, and strategies to support expanding food ranges.
