How to Get Your Kids to Eat a Healthy Breakfast

Sep222022
PARENTING CONFIDENT KIDS

Every parent knows that it’s their responsibility to feed their kids. That’s easier said than done sometimes, especially when you’re trying to help them make healthy choices regarding the foods they eat. Breakfast is especially important in this regard since it sets the tone for the whole day. So what can you do to get your kids to eat a healthy breakfast?

Avoid Sugary Cereals

It can be tempting to buy sugary cereals for your kids to eat for breakfast. After all, they’re sure to devour them, which means you can at least feel confident that they’ve eaten something before leaving in the morning. Still, eating lots of sugar for breakfast isn’t the healthiest way to start the day. If your kids love cereal, try to find ones that have less sugar and greater nutritional value.

Make Sure They Get Protein

Protein is a crucial macronutrient, especially for growing kids. It has an important role to play in building muscle, for one thing, but it does so much more than that. Eating protein helps you feel full longer, which can really help kids make it through the day to lunch. It also helps manage blood sugar levels, which means that your kids are less likely to deal with the dreaded sugar crash later on. Eggs are a great source of protein but also Vitamin D. Cheese, milk, yogurt, and nuts can also be excellent sources of protein that fit in wonderfully in a healthy breakfast.

Include Fruits and Vegetables

Everyone knows fruits and vegetables are good for you, but not all kids like to go for them, especially not for breakfast. Want an easy way to sneak in healthy fruits and vegetables without turning breakfast into a battle? Make your kids delicious breakfast smoothies. You can play with different ingredients and flavors and sneak in some of those super healthy, yet maybe not quite so tasty greens, all while making sure that your kids have a healthy, nutritious breakfast.

There’s a saying about how you are what you eat. As it turns out, it’s more true than it isn’t. The human body uses the nutrients from the food it consumes to rebuild itself every day. This is just as true for children as it is for adults. Make sure your kids have the building blocks they need to grow healthy bodies and get them off to a good start for their day with a healthy breakfast. They’ll thank you for it later.

Check out these useful skills you can teach your kids to create confident, happy adults!
