[quote=Anonymous]Not true rest time where you don’t have to be keeping an ear out, but yes to some quiet time for everyone. There are three main options here: 1. Kids go to their rooms for a set period of time with books or other quiet toys 2. You figure out which activities are the most engaging for the kids and you set those up for independent play in the afternoon and set the expectation that they have some independent play time while you sit and rest a bit. 3. Screen time If the kids are starting with zero independent play skills, then you may need to start with just 5-10 minute chunks. Work and build up to 30+ minutes. This is important for the kids to learn. [/quote]
