Hello.
Please continue zincovit syrup. Vitamin D supplements should not be given until a blood test is done to confirm a deficiency.
Include fresh fruits and raw vegetables, add milk and milk products, dry fruits, dates, desi ghee and ensure 10 minutes of sunlight exposure (balcony/veranda/window), preferably around 10am.
You can include simple exercises at home itself - dance/skipping/ aerobics in order to keep her active.
