My son was in an orphanage for 2 years. So he would anything - food or not!

But, he did would not eat anything that had multiple texures - ice cream with spinkles, choc chips/nuts, oatmeal with fruit, yogurt with fruit. I don't really know if it was an SI thing, or that he didn't know how to adjust from something soft, to something he needed to chew.

He is also a tactile and movement seeker. He can't sit for dinner. His summer school program worked on having hims straddle the corner of his chair. It actually helps to a degree. There is no such thing as sitting back in a chair for him.

In kindergarten, before they got the move N sit, for him, they used and inflatable infant swim ring to sit on. It certainly did the trick. Instant focus!
