A. Hello dear Stop keeping such food items at home..and don't give ready to eat things..instead try to divert his mind and feed..use colourful books, toys,..take him to the park and carry a parantha or a banana..

A. Share the food in one plate and teach her as how to eat dal rice or roti with sabzi or dal salads etc etc start with what she likes to eat and gradually can include a full meal she's just two so at this age babies tend to get choosy fussy and moody too

A. please avoid ready food as much as possible. home cooked food is always better for babies as their stomach is still quite gentle. ready food usually has preservatives. but children become too fussy sometimes and you can't avoid it. only very rarely is ok. not frequently at all. Try to make your baby's food look interesting also. Try to make bite sized foods like mini sandwiches and cut them in different shapes.make some filling with vegetables or chicken if you eat non veg. Engage her while eating by sitting with her ...tell stories...sing rhymes. Make the plate colourful.  Make your baby sit on a high chair.Try giving her some warm food...my son used to not eat when the food gets cold. Try giving variety of foods. If your baby dislikes something present the same in a different way after some days.

A. Packed good is not good for health. Try to give finger foods in a healthy form and slowly introduce food again in small quantity.
