Making It Easy for Moms on the Go

Not a single member of my family is a morning person.

Probably the only thing worse than dealing with any of us grumps in the morning is dealing with any of us when we didn’t manage to get breakfast. That’s truly scary. So we need breakfasts we can grab on the go. Even better if it can be eaten in the car on our way to school (or whatever sports field we’re headed to that day… we have to leave at 5:00 am for a race this weekend!).

With summer almost here, our schedule does slow down a bit. There aren’t quite as many sports practices and games to keep up with, but there are still some. Plus, the kids will want to go to the beach, the pool, and the park. None of these are at the crack of dawn, thankfully, but we do still need to have easy, portable snacks along with us so we don’t get cranky from hunger and aren’t tempted by the drive-thru.

During the summer, I put more of the responsibility of packing our bag for the day on my boys. They’re supposed to pack their bags for school, but I find myself reminding them of what they need so I don’t wind up getting a phone call from school. But summer time is the perfect time for my boys to be given that responsibility to practice (so maybe someday they can get their bags packed without me!).

My boys can easily pack Kellogg’s Cereal In A Cup in our beach bag. Frosted Flakes, Fruit Loops, Raisin Bran Crunch, and Frosted Mini Wheats can go to the park or be a hit at the pool. And they are so easy to prepare, even the kids can do it! Cereal is the perfect anytime, anywhere, anyone food.  It’s quick, easy and convenient, always satisfying and up for anything. Kellogg’s Cereal In A Cup is an easy solution for our hectic mornings or our on-the-go summers. I like keeping snacks simple and easy so we can make the most of summer.

    We are going to tour our town’s local landmarks. We have lived here for 5 years now and have never made the rounds of all the landmarks here. We live in the coastal area of the South, close to Charleston, SC and Savannah, Ga both of which we have been to more than once but we have never investigated what our own town has to offer

    This summer will be different for us. We usually take a family vacation every June, but with the kids getting older, their schedules are getting tougher to work around. (Ages 23-2 years)
    We are hoping to take some weekend trips with the younger kids at least. We enjoy hiking and exploring. We also like to go to the beach and picnic. It won’t be fancy, but it will be great just to be together.
