Q.
#AskTheExpert My son is 1 year 11 months old. He refuses to eat rice. I stopped breastfeeding when he was 1 year 6 months old. He does not like to drink cow's milk. How can I make him eat rice and drink milk? What can I give as a substitute to rice and milk.

Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 1 m old girl4 years agoA. hi
mam,it is ok if a child doesn't like particular food items.
it is not his /her permanent choice.
it will change over period naturally.
just try your best by offering these food items with different taste, different texture and different colors.
for example
as a child doesn't like to eat rice ,you can prepare idli, dhokla, khichu ,dosa ,kheer etc
you can also offer mix veg pulav .
if a child doesn't like milk ,you can try with different taste like milk with honey,milk with dry fruits etc
you can buy special cup ,glass or full dinner set for him /her which may help to encourage your child to take these food items.
you can buy Babyhug brand sipper or dinner set for this as they are specially made for Babies with attractive design.
although if a child reject them ,then you can offer boiled potatoes, sweet potatoes instead of rice as both are good source of starch like rice.
you can offer other dairy products like paneer curd ghee etc instead of milk .
