Keeping breakfast interesting...


5 things that's worked and continue to work with our two boys (2 yrs and 4 yrs old):

  1. Introduce breakfast cereal bars (change brands/flavours often because it gets boring very quickly). Alternate with your usual cereal varieties, make it a treat.
  2. Blend up a milkshake out of the cereal (if possible) and use big straws to make it even more interesting.
  3. Make fun shapes whenever possible, especially when there's toast, egg or whatever, e.g. you could make a smiley face. Thats right, play a bit with your food :-). Our eldest enjoys this the most given his gravitation to fantasy play.
  4. Serve cereal without milk some days, makes for a crunchy breakfast.
  5. Experiment. Surf the web for other great ideas, there's millions of them going around.
