✨ Learn how to better understand your child’s behavior
✨ Discover practical strategies you can use at home
✨ Gain helpful insights to support your child with compassion and confidence
✨ Connect and learn alongside fellow parents and caregivers

🌈 COLORS ON THE TABLE: WHY EAT THE RAINBOW?

Different colors can represent different combinations of phytonutrients, vitamins, minerals and fiber. No single color provides everything—variety is the goal over time.

🔴 RED — supports heart and blood vessel health and antioxidant defenses
🟠 ORANGE — supports healthy vision, immunity, skin and growth
🟡 YELLOW — supports vision, immunity and antioxidant defenses
🟢 GREEN — supports healthy eyes, growing cells, digestion and immunity
🔵 BLUE — supports brain, heart and blood vessel health and antioxidant defenses
🟣 PURPLE/VIOLET — provides anthocyanins and other polyphenols that support cardiovascular and cellular health
🤍 WHITE — still counts! White plant foods provide fiber and many beneficial nutrients and plant compounds
🤎 BROWN — whole grains, beans, nuts, seeds and mushrooms can provide fiber, minerals and diverse plant compounds

But here’s the Feeding Clinic question:
Does “eat the rainbow” have to mean “finish the rainbow”?

For some children, progress begins with seeing, touching, smelling, helping prepare, or simply tolerating a food nearby.

🌈 Different colors. Broader variety. One relationship with food worth protecting.

Offer. Explore. No pressure.
Not yet does not mean never.

👉 This week, how many colors can your family EXPLORE—not necessarily eat?

Why can a child read three grade levels ahead, yet dread every writing assignment?

Advanced reading alongside dysgraphia — a condition that makes handwriting and getting thoughts onto paper unusually difficult, regardless of intelligence — is one of the puzzling profiles at the heart of Session 3, “The Developing Child,” with developmental-behavioral pediatrician Dr. Victoria Ang-Nolasco. Her background spans academic medicine at UP-PGH and Ateneo School of Medicine, current practice at Cardinal Santos Medical Center and the Manila Med Child Development Enrichment Center, and international training including the Triple P Positive Parenting Program and Harvard’s Newborn Behavioral Observations system.

She’ll help parents make sense of uneven development and twice-exceptionality — the gap between a child’s intellectual gifts and their other developmental needs, and why closing that gap starts with understanding it.

Kung may magkakaugnay na impluwensiya ng genes ang autism, ADHD, at mga learning disorders, ano ang maaari nating hindi mapansin kapag nakatuon lang tayo sa isang diagnosis o "level" ng bata?

🌳 Parang mga sanga ng puno: Magkaiba, pero may shared roots.

Ang batang may autism ay puwede ring may ADHD o iba pang problema.

Lahat ba ng hirap niya ay dahil sa autism? O may iba pa siyang aspeto na kailangan ng tulong?
