Ep18: Beyond Chicken Nuggets: ADHD-Friendly Strategies to Get Kids to Try New Foods


Listen Later

Do you have a picky eater at home? I get it! Encouraging kids to try new foods—especially when they’re stuck in the chicken nugget phase—can be a challenge. But establishing healthy eating habits early on is key, and as someone who loves exploring different cuisines, I know how important it is to help kids develop a love for variety.

As a math tutor and ADHD coach, I also understand how food affects focus, mood, and energy levels. That’s why I’m sharing simple, practical strategies that have helped my own kids and students step outside their comfort zone when it comes to food.

What you'll learn:

  • Why kids (especially those with ADHD) can be extra sensitive to new foods
  • How to introduce variety without mealtime meltdowns
  • The role of textures, flavors, and presentation in getting kids to eat different foods
  • ADHD-friendly nutrition strategies to support focus and energy
  • Fun and creative ways to make trying new foods an adventure
