10 Healthy Breakfast Snacks for Kids

Eggs in a Hole

This is one of the fastest breakfasts to make. Simply cut a hole in the middle of a slice of whole grain bread, using a round cookie cutter and place it in a frying pan with some olive or melted butter.

Break an egg into the hole and cook on the stovetop until done.

Healthy Whole-Grain Options

Whole grain refers to food that contains all three parts of the grain, including the germ, bran, and endosperm. Intact examples of whole grains include brown rice, whole wheat, oats, quinoa, sorghum, and millet. These grains are healthier than refined grains because they have more fiber, vitamins, minerals, and protein.

Children would benefit from eating more of them.

According to a 9-month study on children at ages of 9 to 11 with excess weight, those who ate 3 servings of whole grain foods each day had a lower body mass index (BMI), [2] body fat percentage, and waist circumference, compared to those who ate their regular diet.

There are numerous whole-grain healthy breakfast options, and many of them can be done ahead of time. Here are some of the best options.
