About the Placemats

Trying new foods can be stressful, but it doesn’t have to be.

We are parents, grandparents, caregivers, and educators with the same worries about our kids.

Are they eating? Are they eating enough? Are they eating foods that nourish their growing bodies? Why won’t they eat? What can I get them to eat?

Let’s encourage creativity and self-expression; it’s okay to play with your food!

If you’re looking to transform a picky eater to an adventurous diner, then these Food Explorer mats are for you!

This hands-on, taste-testing tool will transform mealtime and grow adventurous eaters through sensory exploration and mindfulness. Taking a pause to slow down, engage with food, and check-in with ourselves creates an opportunity to learn about our taste buds and texture preferences.

The "My Food Explorer Mat" is designed as a tool to experiment with new foods or explore old favorites. The "My Food Explorer Comparison Mat" is intended to nurture adventurous palates by comparing the same food prepared two different ways (such as raw broccoli or roasted broccoli); comparing different varieties of the same food (such as a granny smith apple and a red delicious apple); comparing two completely different foods (such an apple and a banana).

We use our senses every day but rarely stop to think about the information they give us. Let’s explore the look, feel, smell, sound, and taste of two different foods. Time to put your Food Explorer hat on and experience delicious! Use these placemats to transform mealtime battles into pressure-free, experimental fun.

These placemats make a great gift for any child, parent, or teacher. It is perfect for mealtimes at home, taste-testings in school, and food exploration in workshops. Grow adventurous eaters through fun food discovery every time you eat.

These placemats will become your kiddos favorite and they will ask to eat on them every time you sit around the table!

If you like these placemats, then you will love my Growing Adventurous Eaters book series for kids. Check out my fruit book “Where Do Bananas Come From? A Book of Fruits, Second Edition” and "Where Does Broccoli Come From? A Book of Vegetables" available on Amazon.
