    Default cooked lunches

    Everyone seems to do it different. I have been providing a hot lunch, others do butties and others ask the parents for a packed lunch or meals.

    I'm not organised at all at the moment and find myself feeding the similar things all the time. Today he is having party food as we are at a birthday party (taking nap at mo) but normally I do pasta/rice/potato dishes but my own two children will only eat sandwiches or toasted sandwiches so just cooking for the mindee what would you do?

    I don't mainly because with nursery runs I wouldn't be able to find time to play with the children. I provide a cooked tea at 5pm though.

    I would keep food from my previous nights meal and heat it up.

    Not sure why you are cooking meals for mindees and your own children are having sandwiches... that seems like hard work to me!

    I would change your menus around so your cooked meals (if you want to do them) are at tea time when your own children eat.
