The days of dumping dinners in the bin are over with Rachel Strutton's proven picky eating recovery method! Informed by the latest neuroscientific research and proven in practice with her clients and her own children, Rachel has found that the easiest strategy to overcome picky eating is also the most fun: sensory play. Nothing is more natural to children than play, and by exposing children to the foods they refuse and fear in a positive manner, they recontextualize those ingredients. Then, when reintroduced at the table, they aren't as off-putting or scary.

Rachel has an activity for every food sensitivity and playtime preference: For kiddos petrified of slippery textures, recontextualize their fears with fantastic Jelly Digs, Hide'n'Seek Spaghetti and Ice Rescues. For kids who refuse anything green, try Vegetable Printing, Broccoli Haircuts or Watermelon Carving. Rachel supports fussy eaters and their families by encouraging exploration without the stress of mealtime negotiations. And once dinner time comes around, Rachel's spectacular tantrum-free tips help make table-time peaceful and fruitful, ensuring everyone gets fed. Perfect for neurotypical and neurodiverse families alike, these playful activities will have your family eating together in no time-no tears required.
