Onion To Cucumber, Include These Summer Foods To Your Kids Diet

As a result, it is crucial to make sure that their nutrition is supplied appropriately to help them go forward. Here are some foods to include in your child’s diet to keep them going through the summers.

Watermelon

Who doesn't enjoy watermelons? It's delicious and refreshing. Despite the fact that shops now carry them all year long, it is still a joy to find the fresh, locally produced ones during the summertime. Not just the sweetest flavour but they assist the body in removing toxins and are fantastic for hydration because of its high water content.

Dahi

From lassi to having raita, summer is a great time to add dahi in your child’s diet. Yogurt keeps the body cool from the inside out and the probiotics are excellent for digestion. It's a treat that children adore, so you could sprinkle on some sugar or, even better, include some fruits.

Onion

When consumed raw, onions are extremely effective at regulating body temperature. Some children might not enjoy eating raw onion; in that case, you could make a mint chutney and smuggle it in, or you could cook pyaaz ke parathe.
