Every morning the 3 year old gets into bed with me at some ungodly hour and wants to chat about his breakfast requirements.
3 year old – I would like coconuts for breakfast
Me - You’d like coconuts?!
3 year old – Yes, like [Teacher Friend Mother of 3], she has coconuts for breakfast
Me - I’m sure she doesn’t
3 year old - When we stayed there she gave us coconuts for breakfast
Me – Shhh, now, go back to sleep
It is only now, hours later that it dawns on me …
He means Coco Pops.

We have holiday cereal too. Otherwise it’s shreddies and porridge all the way. We also have coconuts. Seriously.
You have coconuts?
Ha ha…so cute. 3 yo’s can be hard work, but GOD they’re funny! x
I love that – no darling there’s no way its coconuts … oops coco pops ! Not convinced that chocolate for breakfast would work in this house
Not as healthy after all. I thought for a moment that he might been watching the Jungle Book. Sweet.
Would have been great to see his face had you presented him with a coconut though.
..as I hacked the top off with a machete and handed him a straw?
Could be worth a try – Bamboozle him right back!
Ahh, bless him. But thank goodness your friend isn’t haven’t coconuts for breakfast, that would be an enormous hassle!
Can you imagine the hassle, jeez.
Ah. My 3 year old recently discovered Coco Pops too, and was very taken with them. We have told him that they only ever come at Christmas, in small boxes, for breakfast at Nana’s house. So far he believes us, but he loves the supermarket and is bound to spot the big boxes sooner or later. I suppose I should prepare a strategy now…
We call anything like that ‘holiday cereal’ … we get them when we go camping and that’s about it. They quite like the idea so when we go to the supermarket they also call it holiday cereal. I’m sure in a year or two they will question why holiday cereal is on show all year round, but until then …
A perfect way to start the day…Coco Pops!
Perhaps not for you though…

I’m just as bad – I like them too!
