A Note to Parents

We’ve heard it all before: Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But mornings are tough; there’s a lot to think about and do to get a weekday started, and a leisurely family breakfast often isn’t a realistic option. Here’s some food for thought:

Did you know that countless studies prove that kids who don’t eat breakfast:

• Don’t perform well at school and have lower test scores?

• Have trouble following directions?

• Have difficulty concentrating and performing tasks?

• Are more likely to overeat at other meals?

Also, recent studies show that kids who don’t eat breakfast may not get the vitamins and minerals that breakfast offers—calcium, folic acid, vitamins A and C—later in the day.

It’s a good argument for eating breakfast. Even if you’re running out the door, it’s possible to have a breakfast that you can grab on the go. Kids learn by example, so it would be good to try at least to have your coffee or some juice with your child to show that you are fueling your body in the morning, too. The important thing is to get her into the habit of eating breakfast; you’ll be setting her up for a lifetime of healthy eating.

These quick and easy breakfasts should take only a few minutes to prepare:

Make it the night before:

• Peanut butter sandwich

• Cheese sandwich

• Hardboiled eggs

Quick in the a.m.:

• Healthy cereal with low-fat milk

• A piece of fruit and toast

• Frozen waffles or pancakes

• Bagel with peanut butter, cheese, or jam

• Cottage cheese on toast or crackers
