Poor memory in toddlers can be improved through dietary adjustments, training, and other methods. If the issue is due to zinc deficiency, it is advisable to consume more nutritious foods such as seafood and beef. In daily life, ensure the child gets sufficient sleep. If necessary, zinc supplements may be taken, and efforts should also be made to strengthen memory training for the child.
