hi i would like to pick a few brains and compare notes please? DD 4 years has started the full time nursery class at the primary school at the start of January term. Before that she was doing 2 and a half days at private pre school. She has only recently stopped afternoon naps this last couple of months and is a really fussy eater, out of a hot meal at teatime she will probably only eat the potatoes.
Sibce starting nursery class, she is eating a hot meal at lunchtime and then eats a flapjack on the way home then asks for 2 pieces of cheesy toast and a warm juice as soon as her nose is thru the door. by the time we eat our hot meal 5pm ish she refuses and as a result wakes up grumpy tired and hungry next morning. Do i give her cereal and milk for supper or will that start her thinking that she doesn't have to have her hot meal at teatime with us?
she is so bright and demanding i am at a loss to decide, any experiences????????
