Answer:

Why is breakfast the most important meal of the day?

Breakfast means ‘break the fast’, as the previous meal is typically 8–10 hours before waking up in the morning. Breakfast is important in re-fuelling the body with energy and nutrients, kick-starting the day. If breakfast is skipped, the result can be feeling lethargic and tired and lead to difficulty concentrating and behaviour difficulties in the school environment.

Why is breakfast important for children?

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 don’t eat breakfast may not make up for the nutrients not consumed within the rest of the day’s intake. Eating breakfast can also reduce the risk of overweight and/or obesity, as breakfast is often replaced by mid-morning snacks that tend to be high in fat, sugar and salt. Skipping breakfast can also lead to over eating throughout the rest of the day, increasing the risk of becoming overweight or obese.

How can breakfast affect children while at school?

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. Breakfast can improve behaviour and mood, as children have better concentration and aren’t tired or hungry.

yes , school should include breakfast daily. there are many reaons to why i think this . for one ,breakfast is a important meal of the day . and not everyone gets to eat at home ,so for them to provide breakfast at school is great!

there are homlesss kids out there who can’t eat food where they stay ,so they be hungry! and kids like that would love to be able to at least eat one meal a day . schools should also make breakfast free ,in i’m opinion.

there are many reason why i think this . not everyone is able to afford food at school ,so kids don’t be able to eat food like some other kids . and you never know what a person is going through so it’s good to just let’s them get it free .

even if they can’t get it free ,they should have a “do not want “ basket for the people who bought food ans did not eat it . that would help a lot of kids ! also,they should allow kids to eat throughout the day.

another reson to why they should allow breakfast through the day at school is because some people just like the food. and not everyone wants to wake up early to make some food at home ,so they go to school to eat . and , for the kids who actually got the money for food ,would maybe wanna buy them some breakfast

so yah,those are all my reasons to why i think that schools should allow breakfast daily at school. and i hope this proved a point to many others out there who thinks differently from me !
