Picky Eaters
Did you know that you have up to 4,000( taste buds (sensory receptors) on your tongue? In fact the tongue is the most sensitive organ of the whole body! It not only picks up taste but texture and gives us information to protect our body from poisons - especially from bitter or sour foods historically.
Ouch that hurts my ears!
While fear of everyday sounds may not be a huge reason for concern, some children experience sounds as louder than other people. This can lead to worry or fear around certain sounds that we may feel are just everyday ordinary sounds - the sound of thunder, or the sound of rain. Some children become overly fearful of uncontrollable or unpredictable sounds such as the blender or hand dryer in a public bathroom.
What’s that sound?
Have you ever thought about how many sounds we encounter on a day to day basis? Babies crying, hand dryers, crowds of people and background music at the shops. Can you imagine if you couldn’t filter out every background noise you hear day to day? Can you imagine if you heard every bell ringing, every dog barking, every bird chirping, every person talking all at once? It would be enough to make you go crazy!
