Raising a Healthy, Happy Eater

Pediatrician Nimali Fernando and feeding therapist Melanie Potock (aka Dr. Yum and Coach Mel) know the importance of giving your child the right start on his or her food journey-for good health, motor skills, and even cognitive and emotional development. In this thoroughly updated, second edition of Raising a Healthy, Happy Eater they explain how to expand your family's food horizons, avoid the picky-eater trap, identify special feeding needs, and put joy back into mealtimes, with:

Advice tailored to every stage from newborn through school-age

Real-life stories of parents and kids whom the authors have helped

Wisdom from cultures across the globe on how to feed kids

Helpful insights on the sensory system, difficult mealtime behaviors, and everything from baby-led weaning to sippy cups

Raising a Healthy, Happy Eater shows the way to lead your baby, toddler, or young child on the path to adventurous eating.
