Hello and thanks for the query
You can give the above said food items in your mail, the only precaution you have to take is that don't give child juice, water or cold drinks, also avoid oily, fried food and banana.
With the diet so other precaution you have to take to get quick relief are: take daily steam 3-4 times a day, protect you child for cold wind and changing climate, Take some anti-allergic and antipyretics like paracetamol for fever. If fever not resolve in 3 days than consult your doctor and have a course antibiotic.
