Is your child  waking up to have breakfast each day before going to school 

The health benefits of breakfast are really important, especially for young people. Studies have linked eating breakfast with improved English and Maths skills in school children! 

It is important for your child  to eat something nutritious each morning to re-fuel for the busy day ahead. Breakfast is an ideal opportunity to eat foods which are rich in B vitamins, folate, iron and fibre.

Skipping breakfast may affect your child’s concentration or leave them feeling ‘fuzzy’.  This is because the brain is starving for energy and needs fuel from nutritious foods like grainy bread,  breakfast cereals, fruit and milk so it can function at its very best throughout the day.

If you are finding your child is tired  and lethargic at school and not able to concentrate in class, the solution might just be having a healthy breakfast to start their day right! 

If your child is having a healthy breakfast and still having trouble concentrating  in class or struggling with keeping up with their peers in sports or schoolwork, why not reach out to one of our Expert Paediatric Physiotherapists today on (02) 9790 4233 or DM us @myfavouritephysio.
