Ready, set, go!

Race horses are sometimes deliberately handicapped for races. Maybe it’s to make the field fairer for the others. I don't know.

I work on the opposite premise in my homeschool. I want to give my children every advantage I can.

The issue of eating can be a handicap or an advantage. The typical diet of processed foods, sugar confectionary, and eating all day long will surely give any child an extra load for him/her to battle with.

Give them a break!! Provide an abundance of nature’s treats only. Remove the supermarket sweets. Introduce an eat-3- times-a-day rule and watch your child race ahead.
