We’ve been cooking up a storm! In Al’s sessions recently, we made Mac and cheese - from scratch! 🧀 We’ve been working on a range of skills including development of executive functioning, flexible thinking, and expanding our safe foods through touch and smell with the aim of reducing any pressure around eating the food and focus on gradual and safe exposure 🍝🤤
