No matter what we do we would eat as a family because thats really important for us as well. DH and I can obviously eat whenever its the kids we can't figure out the best time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-pushing-dinner-back#post-2578435 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 10:04:46 +0000 Mrs. Pajamas 2578435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wait until DH is home around 6:30/6:45 and we all eat together every weeknight. If my DD is asking for a snack before DH gets home I give her something little but usually tolerate whining until we can all eat together as I think that is really important for family time and healthy eating habits (she sees us eating vegetables, etc.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-pushing-dinner-back#post-2578418 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 09:52:10 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2578418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: The other week we were playing outside and ended up going for a bike ride right after school. Sure enough by 7pm they gobbled up their dinner. Bedtime was later but in that case it was a Friday night so I didn't mind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-pushing-dinner-back#post-2578393 Thu, 30 Jun 2016 09:34:17 +0000 autumnlove 2578393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We push it back when DH gets home around 6:30 so we can eat together. Otherwise dinner is around 5:45 or 6 for them and we eat later! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-consider-pushing-dinner-back#post-2542529 Thu, 05 May 2016 18:24:58 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2542529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kids seem to have a big appetite for snacks around 7pm. We eat dinner at 6 and they are hungry (asking for snacks then too) but hardly eat dinner. </p> <p>I think maybe it's just more a ploy to not eat dinner, but I'm tempted to just push dinner back rather than trying to get it on the table sooner. </p>
