I often forget to "feed the mommy", and my kids will remind me when I am getting grumpy ;) <br /><br />One thing I love about homeschooling, my tall, skinny, needs a million calories a day but is still a rail kid can munch her way through school. She works twice as fast while snacking than without food. Go figure. <br /><br />On a sad note, I have a friend who's son has a food issue. His school is TOTALLY fighting against her. He was adopted through foster care, and she has worked YEARS to finally get him to a healthy weight (was way to small), and to eat healthy food regularly. The school refuses to allow him to eat when/what he needs, and his grades are falling.

Kids diets and nutrition is just going down the drains, it's terrible! <br />We implement "math drill, snack drill' round here and it's often shouted out at 10 am. A snack (usually boiled egg eaten right out of split egg) and math drills, a perfect combination!Lindsey,Alyssa and Carlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139958716705313534noreply@blogger.com
