Get The Morning Off To A Great Start
(NAPSA) - Although breakfast may be the most important meal, it's also the most skipped meal of the day. It has been reported that as many as 40 percent of girls and 32 percent of boys skip breakfast on a regular basis.
The benefits of breakfast and good nutrition are well documented-children's learning is stimulated; therefore, they perform better academically when "fueled for school." And there are benefits beyond increased learning-studies show marked improvements in attendance and behavior and fewer incidences of problems such as depression, anxiety and hyperactivity when breakfast has been part of a child's morning.
