Why Is Breakfast So Important?
Is it really true that "breakfast is the most important meal of the day"?
– Michael
Breakfast is indeed a very important meal. A good breakfast fuels you up and gets you ready for the day.
In general, kids who eat breakfast have more energy, do better in school, and eat healthier throughout the day. Without breakfast, kids can get irritable, restless, and tired. So make time for breakfast — for you and your child!
