hi
kids food preferences naturally changes
so don't worry.
just keep your trying best by offering different dishes with different taste and different texture.
for example
offer rice in different forms like kheer, khichu, dhokla, idli dosa etc
make food presentation attractive
try to make your child sit to take meal with whole family because children learn more from imitating their parents.
but please don't force your child.
tell stories for this.
