I hope you don't mind if I add to the list: Apple Cinnamon Cheerios, Cinnamon Toast Crunch (and French Toast Crunch as well), Peanut Butter Crunch/Reese's Puffs, Banana Nut Crunch, Frosted Mini-Wheats (Maple & Brown Sugar & Blueberry Muffin are great), Cocoa Puffs, Fruit & Nut Granola Cereal, Marshmallow Alpha-Bits, Honey Bunches of Oats w/ Fruit, Raisin Bran Crunch, Kix, Honey Nut Clusters, Puffed Rice/Rice Krispies/Corn Chex/OG Cheerios (all are better sans the milk; great finger foods)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think my favorite cereal as a smooth young boy was definitely Kix, the first "puffed" cereal.
Now as a not-really-well-adjusted-but-still-functioning-grown-up, I cannot get enough of all the different off-shoots of Post's Honey Bunches of Oats. Bunches w/ strawberries or bunches w/ peaches are divine; what's better is if I buy both and empty them into one bowl.
What's more: I know some others classify their bigger spoons as "soup spoons", but I can't deal with cartoon-sized spoons; instead, I only stock medium-sized, nearly isometric oval spoons, which are my ideal "cereal spoons". And, if you needle through my list above, you'll notice my underlying predilection to readymade cereals is that I much prefer cereals that can withstand the cold, moistness of the milk relatively sound and unscathed. I don't like a big soppy mess in my bowl, so I respect the cereals that "crunch throughout" the meal more than those that do not. Oh, and I always refill the bowl to fully consume the remaining deposits of milk that may have been left behind.
