Don't Skip Breakfast!
Getting enough sleep is important to a student’s performance. But eating breakfast before going to school is just as important.Studies show that kids who miss breakfast don't do as well in the classroom and are tardy more often. Breakfast eaters also have better hand-eye coordination and verbal ability. If your children claim they don't have time for breakfast, consider having them participate in the School Breakfast Program, a federally assisted meal program that provides nutritionally balanced breakfasts to children each school day. Because of federal financial support for school meals, children and teens of all income levels have access to nutritious meals.
Teach your children about the benefits of a healthy breakfast and help prepare them for a day of learning.
