Help! holiday anxiety around meals

4 replies

Hi, first post! travelling with my 6 year old within the UK next week for 7 days.
I am just wondering what other parents do around their meal routines for their kids? I am planning to do most cooking within the caravan and DS would like to do the mini disco which starts at 6pm. Do you cook beforehand and head out or when you're back?! DS will obvs have later nights due to holiday, but want to keep the routine. I am aware of how crazy this advice is just can't get my head into gear.

We would normally eat before any mini disco or even entertainment.

We would normally eat about 5ish if we wanted to something at 6pm, or we would eat out afterwards about 7ish

We've just done a week in a haven with three kids aged 3, 6 and 8 so I get the importance of routine around meals, but try not to worry!

We tended to so packed lunches as we were out and about then either I cooked or got a takeaway/ate in one of the restaurants on site. If we were eating around 5pm then could be out and about again at 6pm and then I'd just give the kids a bit of toast at bedtime. Worked fine for us.

Meal at 5. Supper when you get back. Alter amounts when you see how it works after the first disco.
