YUM YUM YUM!

The process of practicing feeding yourself to a toddler will be to learn where their mouth is, how much force it takes to bend their arm to bring their hand or spoon to their mouth, how to get that spaghetti off their upper lip and how to use two hands together to hold a cup. These skills require your little one to coordinate the motor systems and sensory processing systems of the brain. Mealtimes offer multiple practice times each day to help create a foundation of lifelong awareness and coordination of the body.
