Method

Find two large glass tumblers. If your child is very young, you may prefer to use a plastic cup!
Weigh the Cheerios, yogurt and fruit into separate bowls. If you wish to sweeten the yogurt, stir in the honey.
Ask your child to fill the glasses with the ingredients, in alternate layers. Start with a layer of Cheerios, then a layer of yogurt, followed by some fruit. Repeat this sequence twice, finishing with an extra sprinkle of Cheerios as a finishing touch.
Serve straight away!

Top Tip for making Fruit and Cheerios breakfast layers

Swap Cheerios for your child's favourite cereal instead - try Rice Krispies or Cornflakes!
