A. it is very common that during the illness the child will not take food. give small amount of easily digestible food to the child many times if you take the child in garden or open area that will cheer up the child and that might improve the appetite give regular waater and fluids to the child to improve hydration because that will also improve appetite you can give fruits as well as juices from the fruits which again acts as appetizer during illness if the child takes 60% to 70% of the diet then also it's fine
