My mom always put/puts (when she makes a stocking for my now-5-year-old daughter) an apple and a tangerine in the toe of the stocking, but I think it would be great to follow your lead and take it a step further. Not only is it a great way to get a more healthy breakfast into your kiddos, this lets you fill up a stocking without spending $100 on the 'perfect' toys and such -- you can still include as many fun tidbits as you like, but you can use the foods to take up most of the real estate. :) Just found this post via your Christmas in July stuff, and I must say I LOVE this idea!

We do have a breakfast tradition, you know those rolls you get in a can? Well we always have the orange flavored ones. Yummy! But since we have been eating much healthier this year I will be adding a casserole and a batch of healthier cinnamon rolls! Maybe I will put breakfast in their shoes next St. Nick day!

My kids normally have dry cereal for breakfast & I can just image how much vacuuming I would have to do. LOL<br /><br />I normally make a sausage casserole, but am out of the fixin's (& really don't want to go to another store this wk). So I'm thinking pancakes & bacon.<br />I have heard of lots of ppl making cinnamon rolls, but I am intimidated by the process.<br />I have also heard monkey bread is good so maybe for next yr I'll try it...(or maybe for New Year's next wk) oh I like that idea!!

We're having family over so they'll be ready right when everyone shows up. Yummy! We can't do dairy so I'm using coconut oil in the filling and maple frosting instead of cream cheese frosting.<br /><br />You reminded me, my mom likes to give us chocolate oranges -- and other candy -- in our stockings. :) I'm making cinnamon rolls this year.
