A healthy diet is one which is low in saturated fats, high in starch and dietary fibre and low in sugar.

Children copy what their parents or guardians eat. School friends and teachers can also influence their preferences. Children need to be guided to flavour nutritious food and to learn that healthy eating can be fun and taste good at the same time.

This is one of the most important meals of the day as it breaks the child's long overnight fast and helps restore concentration. It also helps to establish healthy eating patterns for the day.

The most practical food items to start the day include fortified low-sugar cereals accompanied by milk, a glass of fresh orange juice and some wholemeal bread, a fresh fruit salad with yoghurt or a bowl of porridge.
