After the overnight fast our brains need fuel to kick-start them into action, so it is vital that your child learns to eat breakfast, which is the most important meal of the day. Children who start the day with a nutritious breakfast are better behaved, have longer attention spans and perform better at school.
This collection of recipes uses basic, healthy ingredients. Many can be prepared quickly, especially if you measure out the ingredients the night before. If you have more time at the weekends, why not try something more adventurous than usual, such as pancakes? Or plan ahead and make, say, muffins or scones to freeze for use as quick and easy breakfasts during the following week.
