If your kids prefer sweetened cereals, go ahead and purchase it. But for every box of sweet cereal, purchase a cereal that's not sweetened and mix the 2 boxes together, so that your kids will have the sweetened taste they love but not all the sugar.

Editor's Note: This tip isn't just for kids, you can make some really good combinations by mixing different types of cereal.
I have always mixed my cereals together. I love granola, but it is usually high in fat and calories, so I mix a little granola with cherrios or raisin bran.
