🍽 Troubleshoot Thursday: Picky Eaters
Every child — and every family — is different. ABA strategies help make mealtimes less stressful and more successful:
🔹 Pairing – Offer new food alongside preferred foods
🔹 Premack Principle – “First try one bite, then you get a preferred food”
🔹 Fading – Start small by blending new foods into familiar ones, then increase
🔹 Reinforcement – Praise and reward every step (touching, licking, tasting)
✨ Mealtime success happens one small step at a time!
