Myriam’s own journey began when her first daughter, Nicole, turned one and drank only milk, refusing to eat solid food.

The influencer, who is also the mother of five-year-old Emma and 17-month-old Ariana, whom she shares with Marc, 37, says doctors dismissed her concerns and simply said her daughter was still in trouble. growing.

So, she set out to find a solution on her own.

Learning that her daughter was experiencing texture sensitivity, she attempted to change her daughter’s perception of food.

She explained that by adding food coloring and allowing her children to play with their food before dinner time, they began to view it as fun.

She said: ‘Having worked with children who have ADD and ADHD, I knew that sensory play was an effective way to introduce textures and engage a child.

‘I knew her favorite texture was water because she loved bathing, so I started with water-based sets and gradually introduced new textures.

“I made the water blue with food coloring and added some toy ducks to make it look like a pond.”

“I changed the textures every three or four days to keep the game interesting and new.

“I made up recipes in my kitchen, making play dough and slime that was edible, and colorful spaghetti so she could get used to the texture through play, rather than at the table.”

Eventually, Myriam’s hard work began to pay off.

She said: “Babies put everything in their mouths so she quickly got used to these textures and when she got to the table she tasted real spaghetti and really enjoyed it.”

Within a few months, Nicole was eating all kinds of foods like salmon and quinoa.

Myriam said: ‘We were delighted to come out of this challenging phase.

“Nicole enjoyed the meals, which meant we all started enjoying meals together as a family.”

Empowered by her victory as a mother, Myriam started Mothercould, a website where she shares her recipes and ideas for sensory play with videos made in her own kitchen.

She said: ‘Sensory play will engage a child’s imagination for long periods of time because they’re using all of their senses and it’s open-ended play.

“The moment I realized sensory play was working for my daughter was my ‘mom could’ moment.”

Myriam noted that she was glad she followed her gut when trying to figure out how to get her son to eat.

Myriam's own journey began when her first daughter, Nicole, turned one and drank only milk, refusing to eat solid food.

‘We literally tested all kinds of solids; yoghurt, soups, baby food, it didn’t matter,’ the mother said.

‘She would reject everything. It was so stressful.

“Although Nicole was healthy, we were very concerned that she was not eating and refusing to touch food.”

Her degree in psychology and her experience helping children with disabilities helped her realize that her daughter was experiencing sensitivity to textures.

Using her techniques, the mom spent months exposing her daughter to various textures until it worked.

Then the mom went on a mission to share other parenting hacks.
