my solution would be just tell her "no breakfast, no school". its what i tell gabriel but its kindy still.

hubbys son went through that stage and his mother made him smoothies for breakfast...

emma, if she likes the "lump free" yoghurt, might be worth investing in an ezy-yo maker. they do flavoured micxes which are lump free and I would imagine a lot cheaper in the long run]]> Thu, 27 Mar 2008 06:39:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=335934&title=breakfast#335934 <![CDATA[Breakfast? : LOL I was just gonna update today...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=335738&title=breakfast#335738 Author: Maya

LOL I was just gonna update today too! She went up north to my granparents place the other day and apparently had Special K and strawberry yoghurt "with no lumps in it" and she told me if I buy that she'll eat it. So today I bought Special K and some ridiculously expensive lump-free strawberry yoghurt pots so we'll see how we go tomorrow.]]> Wed, 26 Mar 2008 20:57:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=335738&title=breakfast#335738 <![CDATA[Breakfast? : Natasha eats Nutella on toast...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=335581&title=breakfast#335581 Author: shaz

Natasha eats Nutella on toast everyday never changes. That used to be the only thing that would cover the taste of the steroids she was on, but now it's just habit and I can't be bothered with and arguments at that time in the morning so just run with that.
Hope Maya is eating something now, but I'm sure you are probably more worried about it than she is.]]> Wed, 26 Mar 2008 19:07:33 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=335581&title=breakfast#335581 <![CDATA[Breakfast? : I feel you pain lol, Braedon lived...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=334087&title=breakfast#334087 Author: nictoddie

She used to like crumpets but has gone off them lately.

I'll def try the cheese toasties idea tho, she loves "cheesies". This morning she had an apple which I guess is better than nothing but...

I might make a batch of breakfast muffins too.

Urgh Charlottes exactly the same too!

I have found Crumpets and bagels go down ok for a change- and a fail proof one is pancakes! Not exactly nutritious but at least its something.

We also have a deal that if she eats a decent amount then she gets a Hot Chocolate.

Someone needs to invent a machine that yells out 'Eat your breakfast' in increasing frequency and volume over 30 minutes to be played each morning- would save me alot of grief! ]]> Wed, 12 Mar 2008 04:42:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=323276&title=breakfast#323276 <![CDATA[Breakfast? : Those breakfast muffin things,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=323149&title=breakfast#323149 Author: Kellz

Emma; Nyah is the same. I can just manage to get her to have lemon honey on toast, or I make a deal with her that we eat an apple on our way to school. 8/10 she'll go for that idea. The other thing is the strawberry chewy bars. She'll eat one of those as we walk out the door.

You might have to put something extra in her lunch box. ]]> Tue, 11 Mar 2008 21:30:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=323129&title=breakfast#323129 <![CDATA[Breakfast? : Yoghurt???

Smoothies sound like a good idea. You could involve her by getting her to think of things to add, and getting her to get them out etc while your feeding the gremlins!

Mouse traps?

Breakfast muffins- make some vege muffins or bran and banana or , dates and carrot, or similar- sweetened with fruit like dates instead of lots of sugar,..that u can freeze and she could eat with a smoothie on the way to school even?]]> Tue, 11 Mar 2008 11:28:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=322444&title=breakfast#322444 <![CDATA[Breakfast? : My Mum and Dad used to make me...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=322443&title=breakfast#322443 Author: ginger

My Mum and Dad used to make me cheese toasties because I was a terrible eater. They'd make them with marmite and cheese in a batch and keep them in an airtight container, and then I could have them cold either for brekkie or morning tea. I know cheese is expensive, but if you grate it, it goes a lot further than if you slice it, and, because she'll be eating them cold you don't actually want too thick a layer of cheese. Kind of like a cheesy mite scroll from Bakers Delight, but toast ]]> Tue, 11 Mar 2008 11:28:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=322443&title=breakfast#322443 <![CDATA[Breakfast? : Up and go....thats what I was...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=322431&title=breakfast#322431 Author: peanut butter

Will she eat at playtime? If so maybe put heaps of nutritionally charged food in for that.

How bout a banana smoothie? You could add yoghurt and even rolled oats to it to make it healthier still.

As a last resort would those liquid breakfast "on the go" type ones be better than nothing? She might think you are just giving her flavoured milk?

OK so my five year old is going to school every day without having eaten breakfast It's not coz we're too poor to feed her lol, just that she refuses to eat anything. If I do manage to convince her to have something it's plain white toast with margarine and the crusts cut off so basically no nutritional value.

I've tried letting her choose different cereals in the supermarket but all that resulted from that is a cupboard full of half eaten Coco Pops, Cheerios and cornflakes packets, and I've tried making her eat fruit but she won't.

Any ideas for quick and easy breakfasts that she might eat? The gremlins usually have a banana and a piece of toast with marmite.]]> Tue, 11 Mar 2008 10:48:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15198&PID=322415&title=breakfast#322415
