[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm confused why you think everyone will be "famished" at midnight.
You'll be having dinner at 6 pm, which is a pretty standard dinner time.   
Do they typically wake up at midnight for a snack?
I mean sure, bring a few snacks, but I don't think this is as complicated as you're making it.   Just accept that vacations run on different schedules than home life;  eating, sleeping, baths--all will be a little different than the typical day at home.  [/quote]

Eating at 6pm (for the kids) assumes they will be in bed by say, 9pm.  Your sleep cycle dials down your hunger cues.  If kept awake from 9pm-12am, your hunger cues may be activated again because you are not resting, you are awake.

Adults can probably handle this much better than children.  But mine would be hungry 6 hours after dinner if they were not asleep.[/quote]

So the solution would be to feed them a second dinner at midnight?  No!  If they even claim to be hungry, just give them a hug and put them to bed.  Theyll be asleep in 3 minutes. [/quote]
