Food Sensory Programmes
One of my favourite areas of work is in the Food Sensory Field and it’s a service which has become more and more in demand. The Wyse Bites model for Food Sensory Programmes has proven effective to date for children and young adults with additional needs, and who have food selectivity, otherwise known as Picky Eating.
​
Common signs of food selectivity, are repetitive eating of the favourite food at every meal, refusal of other foods and an increase in negative behaviour. I have witnessed, first hand, the increased stress and frustration for the parents, as well as negative feelings and attitudes towards mealtimes and family routines.
​
Amongst other things, our programmes encourage children who are Picky Eaters to feel, play, smell and taste new foods that they may never have encountered before and allow them to be involved in the experience of mealtimes in a fun, interactive and stress-free environment.
