Memorable Moments:
“Preparation is the key to avoiding holiday meltdowns for kids with ADHD.”
“One holiday, all we found were some gluten-free crackers and a sad little salad – we learned the hard way.”
“If kids help shop and cook, they’re more likely to eat and enjoy what’s on their plates.”
“Bring a dish to share – a crowd-pleasing gluten-free dessert or charcuterie board can make a big difference.”
“When everyone eats better, they feel better. Keep that as a mantra during the holidays.”
“Communicate with your host and don’t hesitate to offer to bring gluten-free options.”
“Stock up on gluten-free treats and keep them in your freezer for those last-minute holiday parties.”
“If your child sneaks a cookie, don’t panic. Accidents happen, and it’s okay.”
