Breakfast provides children with energy and essential nutrients, including iron, calcium and vitamins B and C, which are necessary for growth, development and good health. 

Breakfast provides children with energy and essential nutrients, including iron, calcium and vitamins B and C, which are necessary for growth, development and good health. 💪Children who eat breakfast 🍳each day are much more likely to meet their daily nutritional requirements, as a good quality breakfast can provide a child with up to a third of their daily nutrient needs.

Children who have eaten breakfast can concentrate better and have a longer attention span, helping them to learn and study better. 🤓They can also perform better physically after eating breakfast as there is more energy available to their muscles.
Children who don’t eat breakfast may not make up for the nutrients not consumed within the rest of the day’s intake. ☹️Skipping breakfast can also lead to over eating throughout the rest of the day, and having mid-morning snacks that tend to be high in fat, sugar and salt, increasing the risk of becoming overweight or obese.

Make sure your child starts their day smart with breakfast, so that they have the energy to grow, play and learn! 😊
