This is something I love to do for holidays. I may have over done it just a little on the marshmallows this time, but my kids didn’t complain! They keep asking for “that special cereal.” It is simply a bowl of crispy rice cereal topped with marshmallows, Fall colored sugars, and sprinkles. Now how much more fun is this than just a bowl of rice cereal?
I’m sure the kids like it.
Mmmmm … Hyperactivity comes to mind. Can anyone say “sugar high”?
What a fun mom you are! 🙂
What a fun idea! My kids would love this, especially the sprinkles.
It’s pretty, but I don’t know if I’d go so far as to give them that much sugar at the start of the day. I could totally see doing it as a special treat for a birthday or holiday though … because we could use any color sprinkles to set the tone 🙂 Cute!
You could take it one step further and microwave it for 30 seconds – Voila! Instant rice krispy treats. We made Smore Pie last night.
A layer of graham cracker crumbs, Melted Marshmallows with a little milk mixed in, and chocolate pie filling on top.
I’ll post recipe and results later. It was a hit 🙂
My kids would LOVE this!!!
I should try that for my kids! I like to make them some (plain) oatmeal and toss in a handful of chocolate candies to get all warm and melty!
Whew – what a fun way to start the day! I’ll have to see if my girls would like this 🙂
Mine would pick out the marshmallows and ignore the cereal…
JDaniel would love all of this. He loves listening to rice cereal talk.
I stumbled this post.
That is really adorable!
Kids??? Who needs kids to enjoy this fantastic treat? 🙂 It’s like a bowl of rice krispie treats.
This sure beats oatmeal and raisins!
I must confess, I too have actually given my kids sugar even though some may have turned a bit green at the thought. My latest: I gave my kids CHOCOLATE sandwiches for dinner…
I guess I figured that if my generation survived pitchers of Kool-Aid, my kids would survive chocolate spread every once in a while.
How simple and fun. Bet it would be hard to find a kid that didn’t like it 🙂
I don’t think any kid would say no to that!
Stumbled 😉
Sugar Rush! 😉
Awww…how yummy! Thanks for joining my linky!
Y.U.M. is all I have to say! Marshmallows on anything makes my kids smile!
🙂
I am open for adoption! When can I move in?!

What a clever and simple way to serve a special breakfast! stumbled!
