It doesn’t matter if you work in the home or outside the home, mornings can be down right hectic. But the good news is, you can do some things differently in order to simplify your morning routine. We began our 2nd year of Homeschool last week, starting our school day at 8am. That means breakfast needs to happen prior to that time in order to get through the planned lesson for that day. So for me, easy breakfast options for the kids is a must!
Great cereal is our definite Go-To for easy breakfast for school! Whether eating cereal in milk or eating it dry.
Malt-O-Meal® cereal has so many yummy flavors to choose from, 34 to be exact, so it’s not hard to find a flavor for everyone in the family. We grabbed Berry Colossal Crunch and Cinnamon Toasters flavors at our recent trip to Walmart. What’s perfect for us, is that Malt-O-Meal® cereal tastes great for one and it is also budget friendly for our large family.

Now here are my 5 Ways to Simply Your Morning Routine!
- Quiet Time. Set aside time to devote to reading the Bible, reading a devotional and to praying. This will help your day overall!
- Easy Breakfast for Kids. Yes, please! It is so awesome that our older kids are at the age that they can grab their own breakfast. Mornings are so much simpler for me to get baby up and the older kids are already up and eating, having fixed their breakfast themselves.
- Night Time Prep. Starting with your bedtime routine…baths for kids, clothes ironed, bags packed for the next day.
- Allot Appropriate Time. How long do you really need to get up and out of the house in the morning…not how much time you would like to cut it down to. This may mean that you may have to get up a little earlier and that’s ok. In the end, your morning will be less hectic.
- A Place for Everything. And Everything in its place. Be sure to have things that you need for the next day in a place where you can find it.
What ways do you simplify your morning?
Cereal is definitely one of our go-to breakfast meals. Madison likes hers dry in a ziplock bag but ever so often she tries milk with it. I’ll have to look into this variety of cereal for sure!
Definitely, check it out! They are really good!
I wish my mornings could be that easy. With 3 kids all rushing in the mornings, my mornings is as hectic as it could be. Someone is always forgetting something. Malt-O-Meal does make it easier for me though, especially on the weekends!
I feel ya, I’ve been there! I’m glad that the Matl-O-Meal makes it easier for you!
Cereal is our go-to in the morning also.
