Pretend play gives children a safe bridge between fear and curiosity — especially with food. 🍎 When a picky eater “makes” a sandwich or “serves” fruit in play, they’re exploring textures, colors, and combinations without the pressure to actually eat.
When we join their pretend world without correction or reminders, we help them build comfort and familiarity — two essential steps toward real-life progress.
Do you ever join in pretend play with your child? 🚂
