Are you getting enough sleep? What about your teenager who needs almost 10 hours a day? Sleep rejuvenates us, and helps keep us from getting sick, too little and life becomes an overwhelming chaotic mess.

There is no doubt breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Eating a healthy breakfast improves concentration, and results in higher test scores on both reading and problem solving exams. In addition, kids who eat breakfast regularly are less likely to become obese.

So try and sit down in the morning to start things right as a family, and the rest of the day will be better.
