Therefore, through this research may be a suggestion for the government of Indonesia to increase the children’s nutrition status in Indonesia by serving the educational program to the parents, and hold the teacher’s training for PAUD teachers in order to upgrade the understanding of children executive function, thus they can restrain disturbances of learning process in the classroom.
