A. Hi no it's not good..you can not give frequent sweet diet to your kid as it will cause tooth decay.. maintain good oral hygiene by brushing your kid's teeth twice daily

A. Its Not actually good if your child keeps having sweets so much then it an early age only your child will suffer with cavities that is definitely not going to be good so you try to give a mix of sweet and salty food hopefully with time your child will learn to accept it as well
