Whether you’re in the thick of starting solids or navigating toddler mealtimes, there’s one behaviour that comes up again and again - food throwing. It’s messy, frustrating, and often confusing… are they full? Bored? Just testing you?
In today’s episode, Luka and Kate are joined once again by our brilliant in-house occupational therapist Rachael Smith to talk all things food throwing - why it happens, when it’s developmentally normal, and how to set boundaries without creating a power struggle at mealtimes.
This episode is for you if your lovingly prepared meal regularly ends up airborne… or if you’re just curious about how to make feeding your little one a little less chaotic!
