Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy3 years agoA. it all depends whether the child is allergic to that food or not
at this age you have to offer everything which is made at home to your child.
you have to give 500 ml milk everyday and you can either give milk or milk products but the amount should be total of 500 ml
you have to give at least one and half katori rice and one katori dal everyday
you have to give at least one and half katori vegetables everyday
you have to give at least one and half katori wheat/roti products to the child everyday
you have to give at least two fruits everyday
you can go for different recipes and flavours according to your local delicacies and diets
you can add ghee as well as dry fruits to the diet.

Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 1 m old girl3 years agoA. hi
mam,first you should limit your child fluid intake.
as too much fluid intake can cause low appetite in kids.
give milk twice in a day .
instead of giving juice ,I suggest to give whole fruit as it contains more nutrients and fibers.
although if you want to offer fruit juice ,you can offer ,it can not cause cold or cough.
To encourage your child for taking meal well ,serve food in special kiddie plate ,bowl and spoon.
I would suggest Babyhug dinner set for this.
