Supplements are not necessary for a growing child unless any underlying problem is identified
Next Steps
You can check out adding natural flavors such as almond powder,honey,jaggery etc instead of sugar to milk to make it interesting for the child
or you can opt for homemade porridge mixes to be added to milk or water to substitute Milk's nutrients.
