A. Hello dear parent! Include seasonal fruits and vegetables, green leafy vegetables, nuts, dry fruits and dairy in your child’s diet. Let the child be physically active and feel hungry before the next meal. Serve your child with healthy home-made foods in cute Babyhug bowls to encourage healthy eating
