You should keep offering your child healthy, nutritious meals and snacks. Be patient, as it may take time for them to develop an appetite for different foods. In addition, encourage your child to try new foods withoutpressure or forced feeding. Consider making small changes to the food that is offered and trying again later that day or the next day. You can also talk to a trusted doctor, pediatrician or nutritionist for more advice.

It is important to provide a wide variety of nutritious foods, while also allowing flexibility for their preferences. If your child does not eat what is served, try serving smaller portions and asking them to try a few bites. You can also suggest other healthy food alternatives and offer the option of a different food item if they are familiar with it. It might be beneficial to role-model positive attitudes about eating and discuss ways you encourage good nutrition in your own life. Additionally, it might be useful to ask your child's pediatrician for tips on how to better support healthy eating habits at home.
