A. I hope he is six years old. You can encourage through a reward system. Every time he chooses a healthy alternative give him a sticker. Ask him to paste in his cupboard. Once he collects some ten stickers give him a small gift. Parallely try to explain the consequences of eating junk foods in a way he will understand. you cannot totally avoid junk foods from him. Instead you can provide cheat days like once in ten days or a week. Also try to provide homemade form of the store bought junk foods. Like homemade chocolate, cookies, icecreams etc.,
