[quote=Anonymous]Personally we schedule playdates for before or after lunch, rarely to we include a lunch. Snack, drinks etc but rarely lunch. There are so many allergies, food intolerances etc that I don't want to get involved in that unless I really know the kid and family. We also generally stick to a max of 2 hours for the playdates - longer than that things tend to go downhill for the kids, me or we have something else that needs to be accomplished that day. I do specificially mention to families a pick up time - so there isn't any confusion. Granted we all run late and I will feed the other kid if I'm feeding mine lunch but I normally call the parent to let them know what I'm doing and what I'm feeding them "About to feed John a lunch of grilled cheese is that ok? Our should he wait to eat until you pick him up." I also tell the parents if we have lunch plans so there won't be any confusion. [/quote]
