I find that Maddi is really hit or miss on what she will eat for breakfast before going to school. Some mornings she eats almost nothing and other days, she eats pretty well. It bothers me when she doesn't eat because I know how important breakfast is, especially for school children.

What do you feed your LB before school? Does he/she eat well? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Breakfast is the biggest stressor in our house in the mornings..I encourage encourage ( little bit of raised voice) to get her to eat her breakfast..Some mornings if her eating is not that great I will put a plain waffle in a baggie for her to munch on the way to school, sometimes we also do dry cereal.

What is attempted for breakfast

toast - with margarine, margarine and cinnamon, peanut butter, cheese whiz.  Sometimes she does a waffle with syrup, we don't have time for pancakes or eggs.  She is also not a cereal with milk..I tried oatmeal last week but that was a bust..

Not much ideas here!

Well, I'm glad to hear that someone else is like Katie! Every morning, I go thru the list of what's available that she'll eat. That list includes: cereal (dry, & usually Fruity Cheerios, Frosted Mini Wheats or currently it's cinnamon Life), Pop Tarts (hopefully the Nutrition Nazis out there won't ream me too harshly!), honey & bread or toast & jelly "not toasted"--seriously, that's how to specifies it! She has been eating Chris' Fiber One granola bars this week.

She just claims she's not hungry in the mornings! They do eat lunch at 10:45 at school so that makes me not feel too-too bad abt her not eating much for b'fast but I do prefer for Katie to eat at least a few bites of SOMETHING!!

Cailyn is really hit or miss with breakfast too.  We leave so early in the morning (6:30ish) that she won't eat here.  Daycare offers cereal for breakfast before the kids get on the bus, but from what she tells me, she rarely eats that.  They do have morning snack in class and we have to pack something that doesn't require spoons/forks so were limited to things like poptarts, pretzels, graham crackers, etc. which she will eat.  I think they have lunch around noonish, but she's usually too busy socializing to eat because her lunch box is usually half full when she gets home at night.  She loves lunchables or cheese sandwiches and I know she's atleast eating that.  I kind of figure she'll eat if she gets hungry, so....  Also, they have a snack in the afternoon at daycare when they get off the bus so she's not really lacking the opportunity to eat!

On school days Morgan MIGHT eat something before school..She leaves at 7:40am and shes jut not hungry yet..I don't care what she eats, I just ask her to eat something..Most days its..

banana

yogurt

pecan twist

bag of cereal

french toast sticks(maybe)

cheese

Morgan does get a morning snack at 10am, I try not to stress too much about it as long as she has a little something.
