I have a 3.5 year old and a 1 year old. Eldest goes to pre school 4 days per week and I'm a SAHP. I find that she's ravenous when she leaves pre school but if I give her a snack, she won't want a hot dinner.
For context, pre school serve snack in the morning and then eat packed lunch from home at 12.
What are your afternoon to evening routines for toddler and pre school age from around 3pm onwards? Not looking for school age routines as they're a little older of course.
