Usually 11:00, sometimes as late as 11:30 if we get caught up in an activity.

We start eating lunch anywhere between 11:30 and 12:30 depending on what's going on.

12:30.
Since I started a new family that comes a lot earlier I have been considering serving both breakfast and lunch 1/2 hour earlier.

The kindergarten bus comes at 11:15 so we tend to eat early, but then again we eat breakfast early as well. Afternoon snack is more of a small meal as well!
We're actually in the kitchen now~!

The kids eat lunch around 11:15ish with naptime by 12:30. I eat lunch during naptime.

Me or the kids??? My daycare kids eat about 11:45 -noon. It's a little earlier now since my 10 mo old can't wait until 12 :15. Me??? ha I don't eat lunch, maybe grabbing a yogurt at quiet nap time.

I usually start making lunch at 10:30 and we eat at 11.
It seems so early to me -but in order to get my dd to preschool for 12 I have to have everyone fed, changed and ready to go so 11 is the best time - I can sometimes push it to 11:15.
and when we get back from dropping her off (12:10) we go down for naps

12:30 but I want to move it back to noon or even 11:30, with nap (1 right now) moving correspondingly.

As recently as a month ago I would have said noon but my non morning nappers were having a problem staying awake thru lunch so now we are closer to 11:30.

I start making lunch about 11:40 and they eat about 12:00 or so. I try to eat while their food is cooking or while they are eating.
nannyde 11:26 AM 12-08-2010
The food program says eleven is the earliest so that's what we do.
We get back from the walk around 10:40 and I have lunch already ready.
Get everything down stairs and set up and the kids at the table....bibs on... and spoons a flyin by eleven.
Lunch is the biggest thing we do.
I love lunch time.
