| title of course = Picky Eaters and Mealtime Success for Kids with Sensory Processing Disorders Dates = May 7, 2010 location = Portland, ME description = Whether a child is on the autism spectrum or presents with an independent sensory processing disorder, mealtimes can be very difficult for both the child and parent. When a child has a sensory processing disorder, aversions and / or obsessions to tastes, smells, and textures often develop. Along with this, children may also have difficulty with motor movements, which may effect chewing, swallowing, and sitting. All of these are needed to maintain healthy appetites and good nutrition. Mealtimes nourish our souls as much as our bodies, through sharing of conversation and social relationships, two other problem areas for children with autism spectrum disorders. Instead of a time for enjoyment, mealtimes often become battlegrounds – nourishing no one. This seminar will give therapists the strategies and tools to develop, implement and teach families a program that is successful for all mealtimes since it focuses on the child as a whole. It will review typical developing eating skills, medically recognized nutritional needs of the growing child, integrative nutrition, and sensory-based approaches for mealtime. We will explore a variety of techniques that encourage children to participate happily in their mealtimes. contact = www.rockycoastseminars.com email = info@rockycoastseminars.com |
