It is with no doubt that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, it is especially crucial for kids as they are active most part of their day. Ideally, a healthy breakfast meal for children should include carbohydrates, proteins, and healthy fats — that’ll give your child energy until lunch.
Try not to have doughnuts or pastries all the time. They are high in calories, sugar, and fat. They do not contain the nutrients a kid really needs plus pastries like doughnuts wont fill up the child for long.
Just like with other meals, try to eat a variety of foods, including:
- fruit
- vegetables
- grains ( make at least half your grains whole grains)
- protein (meat, poultry, fish, eggs, dry beans, nuts, and seeds)
- dairy products (low-fat or fat-free milk, cheese, and yogurt)
