Some parents may notice that their toddler is not gaining weight as fast that other kids do. This article explains why it happens and gives advice on what parents need to do if their kids don’t gain weight anymore.

The first thing that should be done upon sign that your kids is not growing anymore is to evaluate their food.

Another excellent source of calorie is peanut butter. Normally, peanut butter in a slice bread would be enough, but if you want to make sure that your child will eat it, try to make some experiment with it.
