from The Language of Play - Kids that Listen, Speech Therapy, Language Development, Early Intervention · host Dinalynn Rosenbush, SLP | Speech Pathologist, Parent Mentor, Communication with Kids
Hey Friends~ The kitchen isn’t just about food. It’s about connection. Some of the most meaningful conversations happen while hands are busy - pulling grapes off stems, chopping, stirring. That’s often when kids open up about friendships, worries, or their day. The kitchen becomes the heart of the home. In this episode, Misa, helps families navigate the kitchen in a way that builds skills and relationships, especially when picky eating is part of the story! We talk about how to move beyond power struggles, how to invite kids into the kitchen without pressure, and how to grow communication, confidence, and nutrition together. And even if picky eating isn’t your main concern, this conversation will help you see how the kitchen can become a place of connection for every member of your family. Always cheering you on!
