Everything improves with breakfast! Breakfast is the most important
meal of the day.
Children who eat breakfast learn better. Eating breakfast gets rid of
hunger symptoms such as being tired or sleepy, getting headaches or
becoming cranky. Fuel your mind and body with a little cereal, toast,
bagel, yogurt and/or fruit in the morning before arriving at school.
