Their smaller bodies are unable to store more than four hours worth of glucose which is the primary fuel for the brain. This is why many elementary school teachers also try to provide midmorning snacks to help improve children's attention in class. If they don't start off with breakfast though, the midmorning snack will only salvage part of the morning," Anderson says. Knowing the importance of breakfast doesn't mean much if you can't get your kids to eat what you prepare for them. Many parents find that breakfast is the most difficult meal to get their children Breakfast may be "the most important meal of the day," but it has everything working against it.
