🥦 Mealtime battles? You’re not alone! Many kids struggle with trying new foods, but ABA helps by introducing changes gradually.
✅ Try this: Instead of forcing a new food, start by just having it on the plate. Then move to touching, smelling, and eventually taking small bites.

😡 Tantrums and meltdowns happen—but they don’t have to take over the day. ABA teaches kids healthy ways to manage big emotions.
