hi Sunita Ojha! I do understand your concerns. he is on slightly lower side for his weight and height. u could add weight gaining foods to his diet such as full cream milk, paneer, cheese, generous serving of ghee, fruits such as sapota, mango, avocado. lentils like rajma, chickpeas, chana, ,; vegetables like spinach, Ghia, beans , carrot etc. whole grain cereals , maintain his hydration. give him small frequent meals. serve him food with all family members on dining table,involve him in whatever stage he is comfortable of cooking. answer his questions pertaining to food. do lil homework before teaching him about the dish, it's nutrients and give him the credit for making it . hope this will be of help to you!
