Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Children at this age group do not pronounce hungry because they are not hungry. Mother and other caregivers constantly feed them with something. 6 hours gap seldom occurs. Over and above, they are more interested in playing and therefore they don't feel hungry. From time immortal, every concerned mother do have such a complaint. And from time immortal, mothers feed children with the help of stories, running around them etc. Don't worry. to be sure, you may consult a child specialist.
