[quote=Anonymous]First, your DH has to pitch in. It’s not fair on your kids to be stuck on tablets/computer when they walk in, and it’s not fair on you to do everything. Plan meals at the weekend (that NY times white bean bake is a game changer, and takes no time at all) and also plan what you want your kids to be doing while you cook. Right not we’re “working on” our Halloween costumes— the glue things on felt stages can last forever— but simple board games (sure with a drink if your husband insists) or soon painting leaves, reading books, trip to the library (with the parent who isn’t cooking) and then as others have said an earlier bedtime.
