Taste Testing Like a Pro: Sensory-Assisted Food Introductions
Does it seem like the children in your program enjoy learning about vegetables more than they like eating them? Maybe the way they are learning about new foods isn’t preparing them to eat them. Learn ways in which you can offer nutrition education proven to help children eat new vegetables and fruits and how you can make taste tests part of your program’s routine.
- Discover how with repeated food exposure children learn to eat vegetables and fruits.
- Understand routines, presentations, and language to help make taste testing successful.
- Get resources for incorporating sensory activities.
