We’ve heard it time and time again, breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but there are many reasons why this statement holds true! The typical person spends eight hours asleep each night with no food or water. By the time you wake up, your body is dehydrated and you have little energy to start your day off with. This goes for adults and little ones in your family! I know my kids are always off to a better start of their day when their bellies are full.
If you skip your morning meal, you tend to eat more throughout the day and the foods are usually unhealthy and high in calories. An individual who fueled up for their day with breakfast can wait until lunch to eat with energy to spare. From as far back as the 1950s, studies have consistently shown that children who eat a well-balanced, complete breakfast perform better academically than children who regularly skip breakfast.

My breakfast routine, feeding everyone else including my hubby and then me =) Sometimes it would be oatmeal for everyone if we are leaving early in the morning, sometimes everyone have individual requests, that’s usually on the weekends.
Dd gets toast (courtesy of my mom who takes her to Pre-K) on the way and then when they have breakfast/morning snack time, she has a Horizon milk box and some type of Plum Organic breakfast snack (either a squeeze thingy or a yogurt “sandwich”)
I sit with our kids each morning while they eat so I feel that I should at least eat something small in front of them. Mostly fruit, yogurt and a coffee.
I nurse my son, and then send him along to daycare where he has oatmeal cereal.
For myself, I eat oatmeal everyday when I get to work.

My twin girls like to eat things like frozen waffles, toast, berries and cereal before they go to kindergarten in the mornings.
easy to make
Well it has certainly changed a lot in the past year as ve’ve gone vegan!
We love quick oats with chia seeds and fruit, also vegan pancakes, or possibly veggie smoothies for mom and dad with yogurt for our kiddos (who still eat some dairy)!

I usually have a smoothie for breakfast, but I got a really great deal on some organic flax cereal so I’ve been eating that. I try to include a fruit or juice, and some almond mlk.
We eat lots of different stuff for breakfast. My favorite is when we make eggs and my son loves pancakes. We always have a fruit and sometimes add some sausage links in. Breakfast is the meal my son eats best!

My breakfast routine consists of baby waking up and nursing, making smoothies for breakfast and then making my husband’s lunch while he gets ready for work
My breakfast routine is wake up, nurse 6 month old, eat home made granola cereal while baby watches (to encourage him that real food is yummy).
My son gets a cup of milk and his choice of breakfast. Typically whole grain waffle or peanut butter toast
