So, with another school year upon us, what can you do to keep everyone feeling good and ready to learn?
1. Start the Day Right
Every health-conscious parent knows it’s important to start the day with a healthy breakfast. If your child asks why, tell them it’s like adding coal to the locomotive’s engine—it gets your mind and body fired up for a long day of learning.
The best breakfasts should be balanced, which means they’ll include fruits and vegetables, protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. Try scrambled eggs with sliced apples and a side of whole grain bread. Try to get them to skip the sugary cereal, if you can.
