You need to try some ideas.
1.Make him get up early by 6 am, so that you need to get him go to bed by 9.30-10pm.
2.After brushing teeth let him drink one glass full of water, go to potty then go to see garden trees, birds , flowers.
3.Let him take bath himself, only superwise things he does.
4. Have breakfast whole family together by 8 am.This may inspire him.Many times togetherness works. At breakfast table you need to crack jokes, tell stories etc etc. ALL THE BEST.

Make breakfast time fun time, when you go shopping ask him to choose something for his breakfast, let him watch you make it... It's quite normal for toddlers to go through a finicky-eating phase for emotional, development, and physical reasons. Here are some of the reasons children often become picky eaters at this stage:
Refusing food is a toddler's way of declaring her independence. As your child becomes mobile and reaches more developmental milestones, he gains a sense of his own capabilities and starts to have more opinions about what he wants to do and where he wants to go. It's a common struggle between children and their parents -- kids at this age are testing the world around them, and the dinner table is no exception
Some kids don't need much food. Your little one isn't a baby anymore. Babies grow at a tremendous pace, but 1- to 3-year-olds grow more slowly. In fact, there are weeks when they don't grow at all. A toddler's appetite will vary according to that particular growth period -- sometimes he'll be hungrier and need more food than at other times. And since a toddler's stomach is small, he doesn't need much food to feel satisfied.
Have you tried breakfast bars? or hive him a bowl of fruit and some raisins... if he still isnt eating then i would take him to the doctors and tell them you have tried everything you can think of ..
Good Luck

It sounds normal.Just like my kids. I have three boys.
Mine all eat very light breakfast when they went to preschool. Sometimes a glass of milk is what they need. But when they come home in the afternoon from school, they are HUNGRY. (Of course they had lunch. Good portion.) Then they eat two meals (one right after school, one at dinner time).
Eating is one of the things you can't force. I think when your child is used to getting up early enough to have breakfast, he'll have more. If he has no problem eating other meals, it should be OK.
BTW, don't make eating become your responsibility. Make him feel that it's his thing to worry about. You'll have a much easier life in the long run.

Maybe going to school so early is too much for him. Perhaps he needs time to play for an hour or so at home and then eat.
My children like to play for about 1-2 hours before they eat breakfast. Normally they don't eat much, most kids are picky at this age. If he is eating well the rest of the day there is nothing to worry about.

sounds like he's coming down with some thing. save taking his temp with the help of the day to work out how its going. do not difficulty too a lot about him not eating. at the same time as little ones/human beings fall sick and vomit they received't have a lot of an urge for nutrition basically make confident he's getting a large number of fluids which it sounds like he's. If the sweet make him sick does not reason a fever. basically save giving him a large number of fluids, if his urge for nutrition isn't returning basically try giving him meals which could disillusioned his tummy, (crackers or toast) you'll see with the help of morning if it replaced into possibly basically some thing he ate or no matter if that's the start of a flu or chilly.

They eat when they are hungry. A child does not starve itself. Physically impossible. Relax and just enjoy him.
