Offer small, nutrient-dense meals every 2-3 hours instead of large portions. Include her favorite foods while gradually introducing new ones. Avoid distractions like TV or mobile while eating, and let her eat with the family to encourage healthy habits. Ensure she gets iron and vitamin-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, dairy, and protein to boost appetite. If she prefers snacks over meals, offer homemade healthy options like fruit smoothies, nuts, or stuffed parathas. Encourage self-feeding and avoid force-feeding, as it can create resistance. If poor appetite persists along with weight loss or tiredness, consult a pediatrician to rule out deficiencies or digestive issues.
