A. Keep offering new foods. It can take 10-15 tries for children to accept and enjoy new foods.Serve your child the same foods as the rest of the family. ...Offer new foods with foods that your child already knows and likes.If your child refuses something, offer it again in a week or so.

A. hi at first,stop giving biscuits. and limit your child 🥛 intake up to 500ml per day. keep offering different dishes with different taste and different texture make food presentation attractive for example offer fruits in different shapes like star heart smiles etc using shape cutter it will help to encourage your child to take interest in food try to make your child sit to take meal with whole family because children learn more from imitating their parents
