This page has ideas, tips and suggestions to make life with sensitive children a little easier.
- Make your own stock cubes:
At the beginning of each week, using one of our stock recipes, prepare 1lt of chicken, beef or vegetable stock. Allow to cool. Pour into large ice cube trays and freeze. Use the frozen stock cubes each day as needed. - Sandwich Meats:
Cook an extra large roast beef, pork or chicken. Slice the meat thinly the next day and use as sandwich fillers or as cold meats in salads. - Small gifts & treats:
Sensitive children react adversely to soft drinks, ice-creams, lollies, cookies or chocolate from the supermarket. They are much happier if they can have a small pack of crayons, pens, paper, interesting books, a dinky car, a new ball, puzzle games, marbles, polished stones, a new hat for Ted, a box of wood off-cuts from the carpenter, an origami-session with Mum, Dad or any other adult, an invite to the movies, an hour at the swimming pool, an outing to the zoo, to the park or a cycle ride along the river. Most children will tolerate a banana/apple health drink or fresh fruit salad from the all-natural food store. - What to do with fussy eaters?
Sensitive children are often fussy eaters who dislike sitting at the table for any length of time and who refuse to eat large meals. Instead of eating the traditional three meals a day, allow them to eat lots of little meals throughout the day. Five or six small meals keeps the metabolism going and prevents low blood sugar levels. Hypoglycaemia is often the source of irritablity and low mood. Eating lots of small meals also means that you get to eat a wide variety of food which is good for health and well-being.
Remember to drink lots of fresh filtered water throughout the day.Do you have a handy hint, a good suggestion that has worked for you? Please e-mail it to us below, if it will help others, we most definitely will post it on this website.
