I do similar to you and my friends think I do so much for breakfast. I have 3 kids.
Typical breakfast would be: Scrambled eggs, sausage, waffles, fruit Bagel with cream cheese and fruit Tator tots and bacon Muffins and boiled eggs Oatmeal and fruit Cereal, fruit I buy a lot of pastries I personally really love breakfast. I enjoy sitting with my kids and sending them off to school. |

| My kids eat oatmeal, low sugar cereal, whole grain pancakes or waffles with fruit compote, sometimes bagels. Sometimes we’ll add turkey sausage or vegetarian sausage for my veg kid. Always a small cup of milk. They don’t like heavy breakfasts. |

Agree, you might be overwhelming them with too much food. 2 out of 3 would be good!
This week, my kids have had: 1. yogurt smoothie and sausage 2. boiled eggs and banana 3. donut and strawberries (don't judge me, it was Kid 1's birthday) 4. pancakes |

Carb, protein, and fruit.
So pancakes/french toast/waffles/toast/oatmeal/muffins/cereal with sausage or yogurt or a cheese stick and some fruit. Breakfast burrito or bagel sandwich with fruit on the side. Kind of the same way we approach all meals. We make and save/freeze a lot of the things ahead of time so it's just a matter of heating up/toasting in the mornings. |

My kid eats a full breakfast at home and eats the few breakfast at school. He’s done this for years as breakfast has always been free at our school. The school breakfast is often more sugary than home breakfast, so be careful if that’s all you are relying upon. |

| If they struggle to eat it, is it because they don't like those foods or because they're not hungry? Or they just eat slowly? My 7 year old has always been a big breakfast eater (at 3 he would regularly put away 2 eggs, a bowl of oatmeal, and an apple every day at breakfast) and my 4 year old has only recently been able to eat much breakfast. She eats verrrry slowly in the mornings. She will usually consent to a small muffin (corn, strawberrry, blueberry -- I make them once a month and freeze them), a handful of nuts, and applesauce. If she is hungrier she might do a bowl of oatmeal. |

Not a silver lining, at all. It is a sub par breakfast at best and just gives the school one more thing to do that parents should be doing. Encourages lazy parenting; another way for parents to not really parent and rely on free "services" to do the job parents should be doing. |
