September always feels like a fresh start. The school uniforms are washed, alarm clocks reset, and family life quickly slips back into its early-morning rhythm – but when everyone’s rushing out of the door, breakfast is often the first thing to suffer.
In our house, breakfast time has always been a juggling act. My youngest two absolutely love cereal, but I’ve never been a fan of the long ingredient lists, additives and hidden sugars that come with so many of the popular boxes. Finding something quick, wholesome and tasty enough to keep everyone happy can feel impossible.
That’s why discovering Nature’s Path cereals has been such a win — a brand that proves you don’t have to choose between health and enjoyment.
Better Mornings Start with Better Ingredients
Nature’s Path is an organic cereal brand with a simple mission: to make breakfast better — for families and for the planet. Every box is made with natural grains, nuts, seeds and fruits, with no artificial additives or preservatives.
It’s not just what’s inside the box that counts, either. Sustainability runs through everything they do, from recyclable packaging and Fairtrade partnerships to reducing food waste and donating to community causes. It’s breakfast with a conscience — and as a parent, that matters.
A Family Favourite from the First Bowl
We were kindly sent a range of Nature’s Path cereals to try, and the feedback from all was instant. My youngest two couldn’t get enough — especially of the Choco Chimps and Gorilla Munch. They loved the fun names and chocolatey crunch, and I loved that they were made from wholegrain corn and Fairtrade cocoa, not a long list of unpronounceable ingredients.
Even better, my teens have claimed the Nice & Nobbly Granola as their own, mixing it with thick yoghurt and berries for breakfast or an easy after-school snack. It’s become their go-to fuel before study sessions or sports clubs — and honestly, it feels good knowing they’re choosing something nourishing.
Meet the Line-Up: Something for Every Bowl
- Nice & Nobbly Granola – golden-baked clusters with seeds and fruit, ideal with yoghurt or milk for a satisfying start (or snack).
- Maple Sunrise – a gently toasted blend of corn, quinoa, amaranth and flaxseed with a hint of maple sweetness — light, crunchy and high in fibre.
- Mesa Sunrise – crisp wholegrain flakes rich in omega 3, perfect for anyone who likes a classic, no-fuss bowl.
- Millet Rice – nutty and wholesome, made from whole millet, oat bran and brown rice flour — proof that simple can still taste great.
- Choco Chimps & Gorilla Munch (Envirokidz range) – kid-friendly, crunchy and fun, with a percentage of sales supporting animal conservation and education projects worldwide.
Every box has just what it needs — nothing more, nothing less, and that minimal-ingredient approach makes a huge difference to how I feel about serving cereal at home.
Not Just for Breakfast
One of the surprises has been how versatile these cereals are. They’ve quickly become more than just a breakfast option in our house.
A small bowl of granola with yoghurt makes the perfect after-school snack; a handful of Mesa Sunrise or Millet Rice is ideal for a light bite before evening clubs; and on busy nights, the kids sometimes enjoy a bowl while winding down before bed.
When snacks are this simple, balanced and genuinely satisfying, it takes the pressure off those chaotic weekday moments.
A Simple Swap That Makes Sense
Nature’s Path feels like the kind of small change that can make a big difference.
- ✅ Minimal ingredients I actually recognise
- ✅ Organic, Fairtrade and sustainable
- ✅ Loved by the whole family
- ✅ Quick, easy and available in all major supermarkets
It’s a rare thing when the children and I agree on a cereal brand — but this one really does tick every box.
Final Thoughts – Back to Routine, Back to Balance
I’m reminded how powerful small daily choices can be. Breakfast doesn’t have to be complicated, and healthy doesn’t have to mean dull.
Nature’s Path cereals make it easy to start the day — or finish it — on a better note: nourishing ingredients, planet-friendly values, and flavours the whole family genuinely enjoys.
If you’re looking to reset your mornings, or evenings, and feel good about what’s in the bowl, this might just be the brand that makes your “back to routine” season a little smoother.
