My 18month old daughter hates cows milk or any milk.she likes youghurt and chees.is there any substitute for milk or is milk a must for toddler?thanku

Dairy is dairy.: If she likes yoghurt, that fulfills her milk requirements easily. Try to give her yoghurt without added sugar, though.

4 letter words: I like to think of milk as a 4 letter word or 4 equivalents.Many kids have an intolerance or dislike for milk, but they need the calcium to grow strong bones. Alternatives are fine. If they get 4 eq ( 4 cups of milk) they will be fine.1 cup yogurt = 1 cup milk;one slice of cheese = 1 equivalent, other milks are 1/1, even flavored antacid tablets often contain 2 equivalents.
