Breakfast Club
"Children who eat healthy breakfasts are able to solve problems better and can think faster and more clearly." Great Ormond Street Hospital
Having a good breakfast is an essential part of a morning routine to help children feel ready to learn and to help them perform to their best during the day.
Great Ormond Street Hospital recommend these types of breakfast in the morning:
- Pick porridge, muesli, wheat or bran cereals with semi-skimmed milk. Try to avoid cereals with added sugar and fat.
- Boil an egg and have it with wholemeal bread soldiers.
- Try wholemeal toast with peanut butter, jam or Marmite.
- Go for it with grilled tomato on toast.
- Launch your day with a lean grilled bacon sandwich.
- Make fab fruit smoothies with plain low fat yoghurt or semi-skimmed milk.
- Jazz up low-fat yoghurt by adding sliced fruit.
- Blast off with a bagel with low fat cream cheese.
You can find further information and advice about breakfasts from the NHS.
