Brief Answer:
here are some tips.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the query.
The best supplements to boost a child’s immune system are vitamin D and zinc. The herbs elderberry and astragalus are my favorites for recurrent respiratory tract infections. For allergies, fish oil, vitamin C, and nettles work wonders.
Also limit sugar which can suppress immunity.
Good balanced diet with herbs, veggies and fruits will help.
Adequate sleep is utmost important.
Probiotics like protinexhelps develop immunity by maintaining normal flora.
You can give protinex.
Hope i helped you.
