Helping Children Develop a Positive Relationship with Food: A Practical Guide for Early Years Professionals

A winner in the Happy & Healthy category of the 2018 Teach Early Years Awards.

This practical guide enables those working with young children to better understand, manage and support children's relationship with food. Revealing the different ways in which children can relate to food, it gives accessible guidance and advice about how to help children to develop psychologically healthy eating habits and behaviours, and how to tackle feeding issues such as picky eating, obesity and food anxiety. Included is an easy-to-use reference section for trouble-shooting, which contains advice on how special needs such as autism can affect children's feelings about food.
