My toddler loves the Little Kids Instant Oatmeal cereal! The direction to use is very simple to follow but I find that it requires less than the 1/2 cup of water or milk to mix and is still very runny that my toddler has a hard time trying to scoop it up with a spoon. I love that it has no added salt, no artificial flavours, colours or preservatives and has less sugar than the leading flavoured oatmeal but still tastes great!
