DS1 started reception yesterday, he’s sensitive and emotional so we’ve had tears on drop off both days, so yesterday I brought some sausage rolls at pickup time because I thought he would be hungry. Yesterday he was teary at pickup and first thing he said was that he was starving and after he’d eaten he was chirpier. Well my mum came with me today and was a bit Hmm about me bringing him a snack, started talking about childhood obesity etc. For reference DS1 is very active, 30th centile and we walk/DS1 rides his bike home which takes about 20 minutes, he still eats a good amount of dinner! So AIBU to bring snacks?! Suddenly I’m doubting myself!

I go to the school armed with food. I normally take a piece of fruit or some homemade flapjack/mini muffins. I thought it would ease off after the first week, unfamiliar school lunches, too excited to eat etc, but it's now been 5 weeks (Scotland) and she's even worse

From 3pm until bedtime my daughter does not stop eating.
