make the feeding interactive. this is the age in which child like to prefer their autonomy. so give the child wat ge likes but make sure it is healthy at the same time. colorful foods like fruits vegetables are pleasing to the eyes of children so it may again interest the child. but the most important step is
make the child have her own cup plate spoon table and chair and allow to take feed herself. how much possible
