Eat breakfast like a king

Picture yourself as a remote control car, running on a low battery. You will probably be very slow, will not get to a lot of cool places, and will not have much fun. Charge your battery and you will be a speedy remote control car, whizzing around so fast and driving around the house with so much energy.

A good breakfast in the morning is just like re-charging your battery.
After a good night's sleep, your body has been for about 8 to 12 hours without food, so you need to eat something before you rush off to school.

Breakfast helps give you energy so you can be active, less sleepy, and pay better attention in class. If you eat a healthy breakfast, you are less likely to be the kid who falls asleep in class.

Breakfast recharges your brain power too. Scientists found that kids who eat breakfast every day do better on tests in school than kids who do not eat breakfast. And, kids who eat breakfast are healthier, have fewer absent days, and are more likely to arrive to school alert and on time.

Kids who skip breakfast feel tired and they are in a bad mood. Scientists found that kids who do not eat breakfast are in general junk-food eaters.

Since they did not eat breakfast, these kids get very hungry by the middle of the day so they go searching for anything to eat: potato chips, French fries, doughnuts, candy, and other foods that are not good for their body or mind. Breakfast eaters usually eat healthier foods.

Don't be a junk-food eater, be a breakfast eater!

You do not have to eat a large meal with seven different types of foods! Breakfast can be simple and it can taste great.

Here are some yummy ideas for a breakfast that will help give you the energy and the positive mood you will need to have a wonderful day.

A cup of milk and 3 to 7 dates

A cup of milk and 3 oatmeal and raisin cookies

Your favorite breakfast cereal with strawberries and milk

Try this: slice bananas and sprinkle cocoa powder and cinnamon powder on top, absolutely delicious!

You can make this sweet sandwich: on a slice of toast, spread some peanut butter, then banana slices, and then a bit of honey.

A slice of whole wheat toast with your favorite topping: labneh with cucumber slices, or cream cheese, or peanut butter and jam or peanut butter and honey, or hazelnut chocolate spread.

Did you ever try dipping carrot and celery sticks in sticky, creamy, peanut butter? Try it, you may like it.

Pita bread and olives, and a slice of cheese

Pita bread and hummus, and tomatoes

Waffles topped with blueberries or blackberries, and honey

Toast and an egg, any way you like it: boiled, scrambled, sunny-side-up, or omelet.

In a hurry? Eat some almonds, raisins, and dates.

A cup of laban, and some whole wheat, salty crackers
