Mealtime Participation Guide offers valuable guided learning experiences about feeding and mealtimes. This reproducible guidebook was created to provide guided learning opportunities for professionals and parents who are interested in looking specifically at the components of feeding and mealtime interactions.

There are 130 participatory experiences including:

  • Swallowing Participation Experiences
  • Physical Limitations Participation Experience
  • Sensory Influences Participation Experiences
  • Spoon Feeding Participation Experiences
  • Cup Drinking Participation Experiences
  • Straw Drinking Participation Experiences
  • Biting and Chewing Participation Experiences

Each includes a list of goals, materials needed, a script for leading the activity, and discussion questions. A detailed summary of typical and variable responses to each activity is provided. Guided observations of mealtime development are included.

This is a great resource for training students, staff and parents. By selecting and reproducing specific combinations of participation experiences, learning opportunities can be designed for each group and each topic. This book is a great companion resource for Prefeeding Skills, Second Edition.
