Not bubbly at all
She is 4 yrs old, born on 2nd dec 2014
She is 16.8 kgs now and have no medical complaints
She had fever earlier in the age of 1.5 yr with convulsions but never repeated later.
She is active and healthy but very thin. She is not much interested in food and hence takes normal 3 meals in day with around 500ml milk in a day.
Please suggest me some food or supplements for making her increase the diet as well as chubbiness

Hello.
As per the weight for age of the child is completely normal and good.
Still if you want to make your child gain more weight than give home based nutritious diet rich in protein (pulses, Paneer, egg, etc).
You can also give some supplements with milk like Pediasure.
