Grade the Ask, a sensitive strategy for careful and successful new food trying

Grading the ask is the strategy of offering the child a new food to try that has a careful ask. In other words, are we offering the new foods in a sensitive, calibrated way that takes into consideration the child’s skills and experiences as well as the specific sensory properties of the new foods. We can grade the safety ask, the developmental ask, the sensory ask, the motor ask, emotional ask and independence ask. The webinar will focus on practical strategies to help parents and children succeed in new food trying and diet expansion.
