Thank you for this.  You see my child has severe communication and language delay, issues with texture of food and as a result has a limited diet. Also do you possibly know any techniques to get a child to sit down. My child just will not sit down gets very excited. It's not that my child is annoyed with lights or people, just loves to run out doors, gets very excited and thinks it's normal
