[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oldest is starting K next year. When do you find time to… hang out? Play/relax as a family? Spending the entire day apart then rushing to do everything from 4-7:30/8:00 sounds horrible! No judgment, but a real question! Is there no family time when kids head to elementary?[/quote] Our kids are up at 6 and we leave for school at 7:30 so we have an hour and a half in the morning. Then they're home at 4. I try to have dinner already prepped so we play from 4-5, eat together, play and baths 5:30-7 then do bedtime. So we still get like 4-5 hours per day together.[/quote] Another early riser here. My kid often gets up at 6-6:30 and creeps down to quietly read or play. I sometimes get up a few minutes early for a snuggle on the couch. We also chat while I make breakfast and I always sit down to eat with him or at least have a cup of coffee. I also run him a bath whenever it’s my turn for bedtime routine and I stick my feet in the water and we chat. But you’re right… not much real playtime. [/quote]
