A Hungry Ch
COLUMBUS, Ohio Does
everyone in your house have time
for breakfast? It can be a real chal
lenge in this fast paced life. But,
what happens to a child in the
middle of the morning at school if
he/she has not eaten breakfast?
Even more disturbing, what if that
child went to bed hungry the night
before? That child will not be able
to concentrate; learning is inter
rupted until he or she eats. “A hun
gry child cannot learn.”
If a child does not have good
quality food during all periods of
childhood, the cognitive develop
ment of that child is handicapped.
Not enough food, or poor quality
food can cause children to have
behavior, attention and learning
problems. Poor nutrition impacts
school performance and the over
all development of a child. Yet,
this issue affects thousands of

Conferences highlighting the
relationship between nutrition and
learning were recently held in
Pittsburgh and Columbus, Ohio
and were attended by more than
900 health professionals, school
administrators, school food ser
vice personnel and educators.
Conference participants gained
specific information that will
empower them to create a child
friendly nutrition environment
promoting optimal health and
learning.
Nationally known speakers pro
vided insight and documentation
on this nutrition and cognitive
development phenomena.
Dr. Doris Dorclian recently
completed research on the rela

learning. According to Dr. Dore-

lian, “school breakfast is the best
nutritional bargain, unfortunately,
many children don’t take the time
to eat breakfast at home.”
Dorelian recommends a
balanced breakfast including pro
tein, complex carbohydrates and
fat This involves choosing foods
from at least three of the five food
groups (milk, meat, fruit, veget
able, and grain). She explains that
a child who eats a breakfast con
taining only juice and dry cereal
without milk will run out of energy
by midmoming because the break
fast lacks protein and fat A combi
nation of the three necessary nutri
ents will provide enough energy
for the entire morning. In addition
to common breakfast choices such
as cereal with milk and fruit she
suggests incorporating nontradi
tional foods like cold pizza or a
peanut butter sandwich with a
glass of milk.
The conferences were co
sponsored by Dairy & Nutrition

in family life because Stephanie is
a county dairy maid and her
mother is coordinator for the dairy
promotion committee. That means
that Jatod and his dad need to
shoulder more of the chores if the
women have a promotional
activity
Annette’s responsibility as
dairy promotion coordinator is
made easier and enjoyable, she
said, “because of six excellent
committee members.”
Family togetherness is not lim
ited to farm and 4-H. The whole
family works in the church
nursery. They also hold Youth
Roundups hosting teens over
night and for breakfast on the fami
ly farm.
With so many different activi
ties, the family needs lots of good,
nutritious meals for energy. Lasag
na is a family favorite and Harry’s
favorite dessert is one that is quite
simple to make and does not
require baking Cream Cheese
Pie.
