Question

Does anyone have a really good tasting "meal replacement" drink for a 4 year old? My little guy is so picky and eats like a bird. He's starting to look very tiny. He's 34 pounds- the same as my 18 month old! He needs extra calories but the drink has to be good enough for the pickiest of eaters  

Answer 1

We use olly protein powder and add it to smoothies! Or almond milk. It’s awesome tasting and has a lot of nutritional value. My almost 5 year old is 34 lbs and my just turned 3 year old is 35lbs  

Answer 2

My friend gives her son pediasure.  

Answer 3

Pediasure chocolate just tastes like chocolate milk. The grow and go version has extra calories and vitamins than just the regular one

Answer 4

Costco sells what we call Organic Monkey Milk, I don’t remember the name of it but it had a monkey on it

Answer 5

My 9 year old has been drinking the chocolate Carnation instant breakfast drinks for about 6 years now. I buy the ‘plus’ ones with more protein and vitamins. He loves them.  

Answer 6

My son was the same. I used the chocolate pedisure and told him it was chocolate milk.  

Answer 7

Carnation instant breakfast, heavy whipping cream and condensed milk. Cheaper version of pediasure; recipe from a pediatric nutritionist.

Answer 10

A fruit smoothie with kefir, greens and peanut peanut butter would be a great healthy option.  

Answer 11

Mine love strawberry pediasure. They sometimes drink 3-4 a day with meals or in between! I give them handfuls of nuts throughout the day too when they’re looking for a snack.  

Answer 12

That's my almost 4 year old. Shes 23 pounds very petite

Answer 13

Premier protein chocolate

Answer 14

Pediasure is loaded in sugar. Olly protein kids is a better alternative still has sugar but not as much
