Competitive practice is starting to win over breakfast

My son has a serious interest in his sport and does not want to miss morning sessions. The problem is the rushed start that follows: food half finished, books collected at the door. I would rather change the household rhythm than blame him for wanting to train. What small adjustment made early sessions manageable?

We prepare breakfast items before bed and keep the sports bag completely separate from the school bag.

  Two separate bags might prevent the daily search.

On some days the training time itself has to change. There is only so much a family can optimise.
