About the Programme

What are Mini Munchers?

Mini Munchers is a specialised feeding therapy programme based on the Sequential Oral Sensory (S.O.S.) approach — a proven method designed to support children with eating challenges in a fun, non-threatening, and playful way.

Does Your Child Struggle with Eating?

This programme may be right for your child if they are:

• A picky eater

• Avoiding entire food groups (e.g., no vegetables or proteins)

• Eating a narrow food range

• Having trouble gaining weight

• Showing challenging behaviours during mealtime

• Gagging and vomiting regularly when eating

How it Works

The Sequential Oral Sensory (S.O.S) approach to feeding is a transdisciplinary, evidence-based method that helps children learn to eat by addressing the whole child—including their sensory, motor, oral, behavioural, medical, and nutritional needs. Using the S.O.S strategy, the therapist slowly introduces the “just-right” amount of oral and sensory challenges to help children, in particular,

• Expand their food repertoire

• Build confidence around new textures and tastes

• Improve mealtime behaviour and enjoyment
