As of right now my plan is to serve breakfast at 7:30 and snack at 10. After reading the other thread I may do away with the am snack or make it earlier to give more time before lunch. (Which is tentatively scheduled for 12:00)

I wish I could do a later breakfast but ds has to eat at 7:30 and I really don't want to serve breakfast twice.

I don't do "breakfast".

I didn't vote, because I don't do either....or rather I do both....or neither... LoL! I don't know....

I do an A.M. snack in the morning at 9:00.

According to the food program, it meets the breakfast requirements so I claim it as breakfast but according to parents, it is only a snack....so they feed their kids BEFORE arriving.

NOTHING worse than having breakfast over a 2 hour time span....

This way my real early arrivals have something in their tummies to keep them going and when my later arrivals show up, the early ones don't immediately want to eat again.

I just wait until everyone arrives and then we have a "hearty morning snack".

Lunch is served at noon.

I'm actually the same, but I said 8:30, although it's really 8:45 and 11:45. I have one that comes M-W-F until 8:15-12:15, so he gets am snack (breakfast) and lunch.

Breakfast is from 7:30-8:00 (If not here by 7:45, no breakfast is served to them)
AM snack is 10:00
Lunch is 12:00
PM snack is 3:00

I would get rid of morning snack, but that would mean some of my kids wouldn't eat until lunch. They arrive after breakfast time, and the parent don't feed them (or feed them junk only) prior to coming.

We are right in the middle of adjusting out schedule a little.

It has been:

8:00 breakfast
12:00 lunch
3:30 PM snack

We have a younger group, who are needing an earlier nap, so we are making lunch & nap earlier:

8:00 breakfast
11:30 Lunch
3:00 snack
