A. Provide a variety of age appropriate foods over three meals and two to three snacks per day.Choose higher fat cuts of meat (rib eye, T-bone, medium ground beef), dark meat from chicken and fatty fish like salmon.Use whole milk, cheese, cream and yogurt (3% M.F. or higher).Choose high calorie drinks such as milkshakes and fruit smoothies made with whole milk, yogurt or cream for more calories. You can also add nut butter depending on the recipe.Wait until the end of your child’s meal or snack before offering fluids. Fluids can fill up small stomachs.Prepare higher calorie foods like grilled cheese, mac and cheese, cream soups, casseroles, scalloped potatoes, custards and puddings.
