I’d there any place to stop on the way home? Bc a mini mart detour for junk food usually shuts them up

Tell the kids to sit out, dry off, and rest for half an hour or so before they attempt the grueling bike ride home. Also, tell them they are going to need to build up some muscle as they grow bigger. Please don't turn your kids into little wusses who can't pedal a bike for a mile because they're tired.
