Help Gaining Weight

I have a 3 year old son who I thought was doing pretty good with weight gain. He likes to eat and he loves Vitamin D milk. He is kind of picky when it comes to fruits and veggies. I talked to the dietician and she suggested putting half & half in with his milk. There are 40 cals for every 2 tbsp. I also have an 8 year old who has a g button but doesn't seem to eat very much at meal time. I need suggestions on good high calorie snacks for both of them. Advise please. Thanks,

No I didn't really get any information. My 3 year old loves Vitamin D milk so we have bought Heavy Whipping Creme in the carton and fill his 8 oz. sippy cup up half with the Creme and then the rest with Vit. D milk. I know that the Creme has 50 calories per 1 tbsp. so it is high in calories. We have been doing this for about a month or so and will soon find out if it is helping. He drinks probably 5-6 8 oz. cups of the milk mixture a day on the weekend the then during the week when he is at daycare it is only about 2. Hope this helps.
