Do you prefer your kids to eat a cereal meal as their breakfast or rice meal?

My mother used to prepare our breakfast every morning. She cooks rice and variety of viands. My family is used of eating heavy rice meal in the morning. Eating cereal is not common to us until I saw kids on t.v. eating cereal as their breakfast. It made me curious so I suggested my mom to buy and prepare that food. We tried to eat a cereal meal for a week. We experienced some dizziness and weariness. It doesn't feel well. We felt that it was not as sufficient as the meal we used to eat, so we go back to our regular breakfast which is rice meal.

A rice meal for breakfast??I would never prefer that and I would not recommend serving a rice meal to kids for breakfast.Rice is very high in carbohydrates and that is precisely the reason why I don not prefer it.It would put kids to sleep as it makes one feel very drowsy.It is also too heavy for a breakfast.Cereals and fruits are the way to go.

I try to eat a variety of foods for breakfast(and other meals). Some days I will have eggs with toast, other days it will be cereal or fruit and yogurt. I haven't had rice for breakfast for a long while now! When I lived at home, my mom would occasionally fix white rice and toast for breakfast. I loved it!!
I try to do the same with my daughter. Some days, I will make her scrambled eggs and other days, it might be cereal or some kind of toasted pastry. The pastries I know aren't that great for her, but she loves them and I figure it's okay for every once in a while!

Ah, so your mother toast rice for breakfast. We used to eat toasted rice also. It is called "Sinangag na Kanin" in tagalog. We used to toast a cold or left over rice and we mix it with chopped vegetables and meat. Sometimes, with soy sauce or plain garlic. Yummy!

Cereal meal is so good I love it. But for the Asian concerned they eat lots of rice in the morning so that they have much gas in their work specially in tropical region is so hot we you work heavy and have no food in the belly it's to tired easily the stamina power is low.
