Breakfast Builds Brawns and Brains

Help me give my students materials to create nutritional breakfast to grow healthy minds and bodies. Teenagers rarely eat breakfast as they are usually on the go. Providing a lesson to create a healthy breakfast promotes successful habits.

My Project

Providing nutritious ingredients and creating your own breakfast, helps provide growing teenagers the skills and habits to build muscles, and brains to meet the demands of academics and athletics.

A full day at school with sports, a growing teenager needs to get a nutritious breakfast and make wise selections of various food products that are not easily accessible.

Our student/athletes train hard to keep their grades up and also perform at various sporting competitions, often times they are too tired in the morning to eat a healthy breakfast and neglect to eat until they get home after school or sports.

Providing them an opportunity to create their own breakfast by choosing a buffet of nutritious items, they can choose healthy alternatives to chips, soda, and kool-aid.
