A. Hello mom try to change the form of food that is not preffered by them , so you can try various ways such as make a vegetable puree and make colorful rice, roti, paranthas, puree, idli etc . for fruits you can make a bowl add some nuts , fresh cream, make popsicles as well, add them in custard , fresh fruit milk shakes etc
