it is advisable to continue your efforts in feeding the child. 
many times it take more efforts from the parents to make the child eat nutritious foodd. 
so kindly go for different recipes and flavours which might improve the appetite of the child. 
At the same time it is also important to meet your doctor to rule out nutritional deficiency which might be the cause of loss of appetite.

Give juice fruits and water which will improve appetite and regular physical activity.
