I don't know if this counts so Kim you can delete it if it doesn't.

Your kids will have a better day at school if they've had a good night's sleep and have eaten breakfast in the morning. We start going to bed earlier a few nights before school so they are in that habit. We always have them eat breakfast. Even if you are in a hurry you can freeze muffins or pancakes and thaw them in the microwave. Or you can lay out the cereal bowls and spoons on the table the night before. Teachers have told me they can tell which kids eat breakfast and which don't.
