3 Ways To Make Back To School Mornings Easy and Fun

This post is sponsored by General Mills, but all opinions are my own. 

Some mornings, the struggle is real…

It’s hard transitioning into that back to school morning routine. No one wants to get out of bed. And no one wants to get moving in the morning.

But it doesn’t have to be stressful and it doesn’t have to be all on you. Start delegating to your kids which will make them more independent and you can start having more fun and make the back to school mornings easy.

#AD 3 Ways To Make Back To School Mornings Easy and Fun With @Cheerios. #OatsandHoney #HoneyOatsAtWalmart #breakfast #backtoschool

HERE ARE 3 EASY WAYS MAKE BACK TO SCHOOL MORNINGS EASY AND FUN.

1. START YOUR MORNING WITH CHEERIOS™ OAT CRUNCH OATS ‘N HONEY

This delicious NEW Cheerios™ Oat Crunch Oats ‘N Honey flavor is an easy breakfast option for my kids in the morning. 

 The Cheerios™ you grew up with and love has a new flavor with whole grain oats and real honey all rolled into one. Cheerios™ Oat Crunch Oats ‘N Honey is a hearty and simply delicious breakfast for you and your kids. PLUS, it’s available at Walmart.

I can have the bowls, spoons, milk, and New NEW Cheerios™ Oat Crunch Oats ‘N Honey waiting for them while I finishing getting ready for the day.

It’s also great for an on-the-go breakfast when you or your kids have overslept. Keep a few snack bags of this delicious cereal in your purse as well.

2. Play Fun Music

Create a morning playlist of some of your families get-up and go songs. Depending on what mood the day holds, sometimes I play classical music on those days they have a test. This creates a more calming morning.

Other times, I have a playlist with a morning jam that gets everyone up and moving. The right music can set the mood for the day and the morning routine.

3. Taking a Morning Selfie

With my daughter getting her new smartphone, it’s all about taking selfies now. What better way to create some fun in the morning taking silly pics of all of us together.

Those grumpy faces turn into smiling faces making back to school a little easier. And something to look at during the day if you need a pick me up.

3 Ways To Make Back To School Mornings Easy and Fun

No more stressful mornings. No more nagging. Make your back to school mornings easy and fun!

    I love these ideas. We all fall into morning ruts, especially during busy times of the year. I think doing simple things like this is a great way to inject some fun back into our relationships with our kids.

    This will come in handy after spring break. Our son often gets cranky when he’s out of school for a short period of time. We love Cheerios. Will need to check this flavor out.

    Love the idea of playing music to help you going in the morning! My sister is the worst morning person ever and we found blaring her favorite songs were the only way to get her up and moving! We then started having fun with it and playing music that went with the holiday/time of the year and eventually just obnoxious silly songs. She then would try and get up before we would have a chance to play a ridiculous song! It worked out great and ended up being something the whole family looked forward to!

    I love how you captured the moment in the last picture. That is one of the most priceless photos ever. So adorable. General Mills makes great cereal. I do believe they own Annie’s Homegrown too. They are one of the best brands ever and their food is fantastic. Great blog post.

    The oatmeal would be tasty, the music would help calm up the atmosphere and the selfie would add fun every morning. Three real great ways to pep up the mornings.

    Playing fun or upbeat music can liven up the mornings. My children are not morning people, but unfortunately they have grin and bear it because they have to go to school, or to work.

    Cheerios oat is a healthy breakfast option and my children also like its taste. I have never taken back-to-school morning selfie, it would be fun.
