Appetite: Many children will eat only one type of foods at a time, and may be very picky. Offer small amounts of each food that you are having in a meal. Offer foods that are easy for her to feed herself like finger foods. Don't make a big deal about mealtime, but make it a pleasant experience. If she eats one food and wants more, you can always give her more of that food. Offer healthy snacks when needed.
