A. Hello mom kids this age do that wherein food does not show much interest rather playing is more interesting for them , so not to worry it’s a phase , make sure too much of snacks and unnecessary foods are not kept in their reach , give fruits make some millets ladoos,chikki , dry fruits etc also Make his normal food more interesting in the ways you present it . Sing , read for him at meal time do not force the child to eat

A. Hello mom Mostly in such cases parents start giving more milk to babies when babies don’t take proper meals. So if you are doing this then you have to stop doing it because milk kills the hunger and also affects babies appetite. So avoid giving Milk all the time and try to give at least 4 to 6 meals in a day. Happy parenting Stay home stay safe
