🍂 Sensory-Friendly Thanksgiving Ideas 🦃

Thanksgiving is all about connection and comfort — and that includes making sure everyone can enjoy the meal! 💛

Here are some sensory-friendly food tips to make the holiday a little easier for friends and family with sensory sensitivities:

✨ Stick with familiar favorites – Offer plain mashed potatoes, simple turkey, or rolls without seasoning.
🥕 Separate textures – Serve foods separately instead of mixing casseroles; that helps those who prefer clear boundaries on the plate.
🍞 Offer quieter flavors – Avoid strong smells or spices like onions and garlic for more sensitive eaters.
🥛 Include safe foods – Having a “comfort plate” of known favorites can make the day stress-free.
🧺 Keep portions small – Smaller servings help manage sensory overload without missing out.

Let’s make the table a space where everyone feels welcome, supported, and comfortable — because gratitude tastes better when shared.

What is your favorite Thanksgiving food?
