??????? Food experiments can turn trying new or nonpreferred foods into a fun and stress-free adventure! By exploring different textures, colors, and tastes together, we help build curiosity and confidence around food. Maybe it’s a taste test, mixing new flavors, or making it a silly game—every attempt counts! It’s not about perfection but about making food fun and approachable. ???? Who’s ready to get a little messy and try something new? ?? #FoodExperiments #TryNewFoods #FeedingTherapy #PlayWithFood #FunWithFood #ParentingTips #WestMichigan #CTC #ComprehensiveTherapyCenter #Therapy #NonProfit

When socks and shoes aren't their favorite thing, practice makes (almost) perfect! Turning it into a fun game, adding silly songs, or giving lots of high-fives can help ease the resistance. It’s all about baby steps (literally!) toward building confidence and comfort. You’ve got this, little one! ??? Here are some tips to help ease into wearing socks and shoes: - Deep pressure on the feet - Lotion on the feet - Seamless socks - Wide toe-box shoes - The soles of the shoes - Lace tightness #OT #OccupationalTherapy #SocksAndShoes #ComprehensiveTherapyCenter #CTC #WestMichigan #Michigan

???? Packing lunches with your kids can be a fantastic way to introduce new foods and make mealtime something they look forward to! In feeding therapy, we focus on creating positive experiences with food, and involving kids in packing their own lunches is a wonderful way to do just that. ?? It’s not just about the food – it’s about empowering them to make choices, explore new flavors, and feel proud of what they’re bringing to the table. ???? Let’s make lunch a little more exciting, one bite at a time! ?? #FeedingTherapy #LunchboxFun #KidsInTheKitchen #FoodExploration #ParentingTips #WestMichigan #CTC #ComprehensiveTherapyCenter #Therapy #NonProfit
