In this weeks episode of The Playful Psychologist, I am joined by Jamie Williams, who is a paediatric speech pathologist who focuses not only language and speech, but feeding.
In this episode, we explore:

What defines a 'fussy' eater and is there a better term to use to describe these children?
Is there a difference between a child who is a fussy eater and a child who doesn’t eat certain foods due to sensory difficulties with texture or temperature?
Is fussiness something that some kids just ‘have’ no matter what you introduce them to as an infant?
How do you help children who are picky or fussy?
Recommendations for Fussy Eaters

Jamie has also kindly written a blog post with an attached food diary PDF. This post includes a lot of additional useful information for parents and caregivers. You can find that here: https://www.theplayfulpsychologist.com/post/fussy-eaters
