Have you tried this?
When your child is eating snack, do you give them a full portion or do you give small amounts of food to encourage more requests? By withholding a desired item, you can create a situation where your child is motivate to make requests, or mand. Given a small bite of food, then provide a model of how they should ask for the next bite.
