What Baby Food Jars Don’t Tell You: Feeding 101

Feeding skills develop like all others. Today's Brains in Toyland features Diane Bahr, MS, CCC-SLP a feeding expert and speech-language pathologist.

We'll be talking about what parents are often surprised to learn and addressing common questions they have.

We'll review the stages of feeding development from birth to 12 months of age so parents can learn when and how best to introduce different foods and liquids to children in this age range. 

You can learn more at Ms. Bahr's website, Ages and Stages, through her newsletter and two helpful books "Oral Motor Assessment and Treatment" and "Nobody Ever Told Me (or My Mother) That! Everything from Bottles and Breathing to Healthy Speech Development.
