We’re back to the school-time swing of things, and that includes morning crunch time!

Canadian parents have declared that mornings are their hardest time of day. Six out of 10 Canadian moms and dads say morning is the most stressful part of the day, according to the results of a new poll conducted by Ipsos Reid on behalf of Breakfast Cereals Canada.

The good news is getting a healthy breakfast on the table and making it out the door in a reasonable amount of time doesn’t require superhuman powers. (REALLY!) Cereal is a perfect solution to the morning time crunch. It only takes five minutes or less to put together and is a nutrient-packed breakfast that the whole family will enjoy.

The Morning Crunch Time Thrival Guide, developed by the nutrition experts at Breakfast Cereals Canada in conjunction with Kellogg Canada and other leading manufacturers of breakfast cereals in Canada, offers busy moms and dads everything they need to reduce the chaos of the morning routine.

If you are looking for a change from cereal with milk for breakfast, try one of these equally quick morning options, as featured in the Morning Crunch Time Thrival Guide:

• Combine fruit, yogurt and Kellogg’s Special K Low Fat Granola cereal in a parfait glass
• Sprinkle high fibre cereal and fruit atop frozen pancakes or waffles
• Add Kellogg’s All-Bran Buds cereal to a fruit smoothie to boost fibre content
• Make trail mix by combining cereal, nuts and dried fruit in a portable container
• Spread nut butter on a banana and roll it in Kellogg’s Rice Krispies
• Freeze a batch of Kellogg’s All-Bran Blueberry Bran muffins or cereal bars using whole grain cereal
• If you need to dash and dine, bring a bag of cereal and a portable cup of milk
