Hello gentle friends:
When I was in elementary school way back in the 50's, I was lucky enough to receive a small cafeteria breakfast in the morning before going to class. Considering we were the baby boom generation with an average of Forty children to a class, receiving a free breakfast in the morning was short of miraculous! Today, there are still children going to school hungry in North America and it is our turn to provide a decent breakfast for these school children and for any hungry child we find anywhere on this planet. I found this on Twitter:
" When you realize that 60% of learning happens before lunch, it becomes clear why breakfast is indeed the most important meal of the day. When children get a balanced meal in a positive, stimulating environment, there are marked improvements in behaviour and concentration.
Academic performance, social skills, self-confidence and the ability to interact with peers and adults all improve when a child eats a nutritioius breakfast in the morning. Overall interest in the subjects being taught increase and incidents of bullying decrease."

P.S. In the 1985 movie the "Breakfast Club" the male characters closely represented a collage of my own life!
