Healthy Breakfast Ideas for Preschoolers

healthy breakfast ideas

School has only been back in session a few weeks and you may already be burned out on making breakfast for your preschooler. It’s important to send your child to school with a full tummy from a healthy breakfast so that they are ready to take on the day! Here are a few breakfast options you can make ahead to keep breakfast close at hand each morning:

  • Blueberry muffins—After the muffins have cooled, wrap them individually and store them in the refrigerator. Pair the muffin with a piece of fruit, like a banana or an orange, and your little one will be ready for the day.
  • Overnight oats—At the end of the day when you are prepping for the next morning, put your oats together and throw the containers in the refrigerator. Layer berries on top and breakfast will be ready to go in the morning. No prep necessary!
  • Mini-frittatas—You can make a full dozen eggs ahead of time in muffin tins. Store the cooked eggs in a container in the refrigerator for easy warming in the microwave each day. Add a piece of toast to round out the meal.
  • Mini-protein or gluten-free pancakes—Pancakes freeze really well and warm up in the toaster. If you have leftover pancake mix from the weekend, use it to make a few extra mini-pancakes. Freeze them in a storage bag and then toast them for your preschooler. Bananas and berries make an easy side and are a healthy breakfast!
  • Yogurt parfaits—While you’re at it, make up your own yogurt parfaits with your favorite fruit. Use Greek yogurt sweetened with honey. Layer fruit and yogurt. Keep the granola separate until you are ready to eat so it doesn’t get soggy on top of the yogurt.

With a little weekend prep-work you can have a healthy breakfast ready for your preschooler every morning!
