A little feeding insight from our Speechie Holly...

Sometimes feeding is messy. Sometimes it’s loud. Sometimes barely any food actually makes it into their mouth.

For us, this looked like baby-led weaning - lots of exploring, touching, squishing, throwing… and yes, a LOT of mess. 😝

It worked really well for our family, but it’s definitely not the only way to feed, and it won’t suit every baby or child. 🤎

We also found that posture made a big difference. Having a stable, supported position at the table helped create a more comfortable and safe foundation for eating and exploring food.

Every baby and child’s feeding journey looks different. What works beautifully for one family might not work for another - and that’s okay.

For us, keeping mealtimes low-pressure and giving plenty of opportunities to explore food was something that worked well.

If feeding is feeling tricky, stressful or just not quite how you expected, we’re always happy to chat. Get in touch with our team and we can help you work out what support might be helpful for your little one.

Food colouring + oil = a fun little science experiment! 🤸🏼‍♀️💛

A simple activity that can support language through play - describing colours, making predictions, using action words and chatting about what’s happening.

Save this one to try at home during school holidays! ✨

We love books that help children explore neurodivergence, inclusion, identity and those BIG feelings - in ways that feel relatable, safe and easy to talk about.
Here are 10 of our favourites:

📚 What to Say When You Don’t Know What to Say - Davina Bell & Hilary Jean Tapper
📚 The Colour Monster - Anna Llenas
📚 When Things Get Too Loud - Anne Alcott
📚 A Day With No Words - Tiffany Hammond
📚 The Brain Forest - Sandy’s Lemon
📚 You Are Enough - Margaret Hair & Sofia Cardoso
📚 My Brain Is a Race Car- Nell Harris
📚 Hey Warrior- Karen Young
📚 The Boy with Big, Big Feelings - Britney Winn Lee
📚 Persistence - Zanni Louise

Sometimes a story gives children the words for something they’ve been feeling all along. 💛
Save this list for your next library trip, and maybe let your little one choose which story to explore together. 📚🌈

Using a child’s interests to make communication practice meaningful 💛

This session, we brought SpongeBob and Patrick in to model scripts and work through different social scenarios! 🧽⭐️

We practised what we might say in different situations, explored different ways to respond, and used familiar characters to make it feel fun and engaging.

We love finding ways to connect therapy to the things our kids already LOVE! ✨

A little bit of science, a LOT of fun! ✨
Who knew corn + baking soda + vinegar could create such an exciting therapy activity? 🤩🌽

At Playful Paediatrics, we’re all about hands-on fun, curious minds and learning through play! 🫧💛

From watching the reaction to taking turns, making choices and sharing the excitement - there’s so much learning happening through play! 🌈✨

Because when therapy feels like play, learning happens naturally. 💛🎈
