Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but did your kids ever make it on their own? If you’re thinking of teaching them some basic cooking essentials and empowering them to make their own meals, here are five easy breakfast dishes that they can make with minimal supervision.
Breakfast Cereal
Breakfast cereal is the first dish your child should learn how to make because it really doesn’t get any easier than pouring cereal into a bowl and adding milk on top.
Toasted Bread
Teach your child how to use a toaster and they’ll be able to experiment with all sorts of different spreads, from making such classics as PB&J and grilled cheese sandwiches to experimenting with different toppings.
Yogurt Parfait
In addition to being super-delicious, making yogurt parfait will encourage your kids to be creative because they’ll get to layer granola, fresh fruits, and other toppings over yogurt to their own liking.
Fruit Salad
Speaking of fresh fruits, fruit salad is another healthy and tasty dish that your kids can make on their own after you show them how to chop fruits into bite-sized pieces.
Scrambled Eggs
If your kids are old enough to use the stove, scrambled eggs are one of the first things they should try making because they’ll have no trouble cracking and whisking eggs on their own.
