Offer small, frequent meals with calorie-dense foods like full-fat dairy, avocados, nut butters, mashed potatoes, and whole grains. Try to include a variety of fruits, vegetables, and protein sources like chicken, eggs, and lentils. Make meals fun and engaging by allowing the child to explore food with their hands or involving them in mealtime activities. Avoid force-feeding, as it can cause aversion. If weight gain continues to be a concern, consult your pediatrician to rule out any underlying health issues.
