Sprinkle Colored Sugar on Hot Cereals for Kids
I had such a hard time getting my grandson to eat his oatmeal or cream of wheat. I finally shook a little colored sugar sprinkles on top and poof, the oatmeal was gone. Each time we have hot cereals, I pick a different color and just sprinkle enough to make it pretty!

Try this: Black Strap Molasses is loaded with Vitamins & Minerals, or Honey... much better than granulated sugar.

My mom used the little red cinnamom candies. Those were a great treat!

What, no cocoa in it? Marshmallows? Of course I remember the green food coloring on St. Patrick's day, ewww!

A scoop of ice cream on hot oatmeal is also appealing to children. Then you don't have to add milk and sugar.

Brown sugar and cinnamon is very good on oatmeal also.
