From the second your kiddo wakes up on their birthday, they are ready to get the party started. Who wants to wait all day for a party when you could start with breakfast? Check out these super fun and easy birthday breakfast ideas for kids to kick off their birthday celebration!
If your kids are anything like mine, they wake up super early on their birthday and are ready to get the party started.
Traditionally, birthday parties are held in the afternoon or evening, which is a long time to wait when you’re a kid.
I discovered early on in my parenting journey that kicking off the day with a fun birthday breakfast was a great way to make them feel special. (It also seems to help them to be more patient about waiting for their party and presents later in the day).
Fast forward a few years and a special breakfast has become a birthday tradition in our house. I am constantly looking for new ideas and recipes to surprise my kids when they wake up on their birthday.
Ove the years I’ve collected some great recipes and today I am sharing the best birthday breakfast ideas for kids that I have found with you!
