They aren't floating, just swimming.

Not all cereals float, just the good tasting ones do.

Because cereal is less dense than milk, thus causing it to float.

Alot of breakfast cereals have tiny air pockets inside them and/or are lighter/less denser than milk, so they stray to the surface unless pushed down by other cereal.
EDIT: Woot first complete/right answer!

The desity of the cereal is less then that of the milk. Just like Ice cubes and water.

because the cereal is dried and then when the milk is added then it float

My untoasted muesli sinks but you mean the processed stuff don't you.
They are less dense so they float I guess.
