First full day at home with both children

My children are five and nearly three and we’ve just had a whole day at home. It was fine, although things did get a bit tense just before dinner as they were tired and hungry, fed up with one another and bored of toys etc.

I have very very occasionally had a day at home with one or the other (usually because of illness or something) but I don’t think I’ve ever had a day at home before with them both. Impressed we survived.

Looking forward to a change of scenery tomorrow though!

(MN AI came up with thread title. Everyone will probably think I have a newborn and toddler 😂)

How have you managed to never have the two of them on your own before?

I have them on my own most of the time, we just haven’t stayed home before.
