What's involved?
-
The program consists of weekly parent-child group classes during school term
-
For children aged 3–6
-
Designed & facilitated by university-qualified nutritionist, Kate Curtis, who has specialised training in helping fussy eaters and problem feeders
-
Each session focuses on sparking curiosity and making food fun. This is achieved through a mix of sensory exploration, cooking and play in a relaxed and supportive environment
-
Equipment and food provided.
The benefits:
-
Lifelong eating behaviours and diet quality are shaped in the early years. By attending, you're allowing your child a preventive approach to good health
-
The program incorporates evidence-based methods, which help children establish (or strengthen) foundations for eating well
-
Families are provided with supportive resources to create a consistently positive approach towards food and eating in the home. This includes strategies that help address and resolve common underlying causes of mealtime stress and worry. Not only does this benefit the child attending, but the entire family
-
The program's purpose is to empower — to help your child want to explore new foods for themselves instead of you trying to get them to eat
-
Your child will learn about food, their body and develop fine-motor and social skills.
