Get kitchen-crafty and let your kids enjoy a breakfast cereal buffet! Creating this new family tradition offers precious bonding time and teaches your tots about the importance of a healthy breakfast.
- With cardboard and markers, create a menu board where you list and draw all the available ingredients (the different types of cereal, fruit, marshmallows, yogurt, milk and other add-ons).
- Fill separate bowls with the different ingredients and line them up on your kitchen counter, buffet, or kitchen table.
- Each family member can create their own “cereal of the day,” to showcase their favorite combination of ingredients.
- Help your child mix and match the different ingredients. For fun and healthy combination, you can try:
- cereal+ milk + raisins + honey
- yogurt + strawberries + cereal
- Trade bowls with your kids so that everyone can sample each family member’s own concoction.
- Vote on the favorite for the week and make it a permanent part of your family breakfast menu!
Your kids don’t have to be varsity superstars and aspiring Olympians to indulge in the fun of moving around . Get them active with these surefire games that are not only fun, but memorable!
