We all fantasise about the luxury of breakfast in bed. But if the kids are making it, it might be more disaster than decadence!
Yet, there are ways to make it smooth-running and even rather tasty, these include:
- Helping them choose a simple, age appropriate recipe
- Having a practice run together
- Preparing as much as possible the night before
