Thank you to Quaker for sponsoring today’s giveaway and sending me a small gift. All thoughts are my own.
Breakfast is an important part of our day. It is how we start our morning off right, together around our dining room table. On cool mornings nothing warms us up like some delicious oatmeal. My 3 and 7 year olds especially love Quaker Maple and Brown Sugar Instant Oatmeal topped with raisins. During the work week, my husband needs items that he can store at his desk after he hits the gym in the early morning. He likes anything with protein and especially loves steel cut oats! And while we might all have our favorites, we can all agree that beginning our day with a full belly certainly starts us off at our best.
National Oatmeal Day
Did you hear that today is National Oatmeal Day? Quaker believes that everyone should begin each morning prepared for the good things that lie ahead. That’s why, starting on National Oatmeal Day, Quaker is giving away up to one million bowls of 100% whole grain oatmeal to help give people across the country a great start to their day.
As part of its new “Off You Go” campaign, Quaker has surprised people around the country with a free bowl of oatmeal – online, on their way to work, or even at their doorstep. Follow @Quaker on Twitter or find Quaker on Facebook to give someone – whether it’s a family member, friend or co-worker – a little good to get them going with Quaker oatmeal. Thursday, October 29 only. While Supplies Last. Terms Apply Appreciation breakfasts were served to select teachers and day care providers across Chicago and New York to give them a little good for all they do. Be sure to check out video footage captured at these events on Quaker’s Facebook, YouTube Twitter pages.

Thank you for the giveaway. We try to keep mornings positive. It can be difficult sometimes with two teenagers, but we do whatever we can to keep a positive mood before everyone heads off for the day. We try to make sure our teens have a good, healthy, and filling breakfast as well.
We prepare by having a healthy breakfast and taking a hot shower.
We each try to do one chore each morning and that really helps keep things together – we’re normally too tired/busy in the evenings to get much done!
We start the day with a good breakfast and pack a healthy lunch and a lot of snacks to get us through the day. Oatmeal and Quaker toasted oats cereal are staples for us!
We just try to stay organized and everyone pitches in to help out – that’s how we get ourselves on the go each day! 🙂
We don’t really have any morning preparations – my kids do lay out their clothes the night before though
I get my son ready for school make him breakfast then feed the rest of the family
A healthy breakfast like quaker oats!
We try to eat a nice healthy breakfast, but sometimes it is hard on-the-go, we always like to take a minute to chat about our goals for the day.
Prayer, reading, breakfast and homeschooling.. Not necessarily in that order.
OU rmornings are a litle chaotic, there’s some overlap but generally we are all running around in our way to get ready for the day. We need to get more organized!
I miss living at home actually. My grandmother would often make us oats in the mornings. That was my favorite breakfast!
We have breakfast every morning and make lunch for the kids so they can take them to school.
We start each morning with a yummy breakfast and big pot of fresh coffee.
Monday-Friday up at five am to get my oldest up for school while he is in the shower its coffee for me and then when he is done getting ready breakfast and out the door for school then back in to do it all over with my youngest.
We start off the morning with a healthy and filling breakfast to keep their tummies full and give them energy for the day.
I actually REALLY need to get better at this with my kids and as a family. But we always tell each other to love each other and have a good day. And we always have breakfast of some kind.
i start the day with cereal
I always start my day with eating oatmeal and toast. My kids wont try it they would rather have cereal but i prefer oatmeal.
We start our day with Quaker oatmeal. My daughters always ask for hot cereal!
