So it can be frustrating for you as a parent and also for the child. There are things to remember about your growing child that are different and may or may not like the same things as you do.
Variety is important, it is a good idea to try to get children to try a variety of foods.
This time of their life is when their muscles and bones are growing stronger and longer, they may double their height and their weight may increase by as much as five times their one year weight. The amount of food for a child will change as he or she grows. It all depends on their height and weight. This age group uses a lot of energy also. So healthy foods are needed to insure they stay energetic and healthy.
