This is the fourth installment of our Family Breakfast series! Throughout the summer of 2020, we’re sharing new ideas every week for family breakfasts with food, fun and conversation to help you enjoy your family time each morning. Whether you’re still socially distancing or trying to get back into a more normal routine, these morning meals are an opportunity for a few minutes of togetherness before the day begins.
This week, American families might be celebrating the 4th of July, so we’re sharing an idea that can be used for a patriotically themed breakfast, snack or dessert. A quick and easy art project helps sleepyheads transition into the day slowly, while silly conversation starters do the job of putting a smile on everyone’s face.
