with your preschooler(s)? What does your schedule look like with your little one?

here's ours...As you can see we are NIGHT OWLS bc DH works so late...but dd rarely sees him when he comes home. Just wondering what kind of schedule you keep (if at all) with your preschooler!

10 get up-sit on the couch and "talk"
1030 eat breakfast (mommy uses computer)
11 watch Show (get daddy up for work)
1130 get ready - brush our teeth/hair,pick out clothes, get dressed.
1200 wave bye bye to daddy.
12-2 play around the house. Crafts, read books, blocks, dress up, etc.
2 lunch
2:3-3:3 nap...(sometimes)
3:3-4 Wake up/sit on couch and talk. Have some milk
4-5 go outside/park
5-6run any quick errands
6-7 Make dinner/eat
7-8 Watch a movie
830-9:30 play games (start winding down for bed)
930-10 Bed time routine (brush teeth, pjs, read books etc)
1030 BED TIME!!!!
1230 - daddy comes home from the restaurant. (dd's asleep)

We have a "picture routine" up in her room so she always knows what's next

I know it's not a good thing, but we really don't have much of a schedule around here. Weekdays we get up by 7:30-8am to get ds to school on time, the rest of the day is a blur! I mean we have playtime, outdoor activities, a bit of tv, breakfast, lunch, etc. but as far as a set schedule, we just don't have it. We leave at 3:45 to p/u ds from school and have dinner around 6:30. Bedtime is almost always 8:15 though.

Well we get up around 7am, scramble around get everyone dressed and fed and then we take the big kids to school around 7:50. Come home, watch Clifford and dragon tales, I get on the computer, he colors or whatever. Monday and Tuesday preschool is from 9 to 11, Wednesday library time is 10 to 11. We usually eat around noon. Just play, watch tv or movies or do arts and crafts the rest of the time. Leave around 2:45 to pick up the big kids. Eat around 5:15, bed at 8pm.

With so many small kids in my house I try to stay organized, it helps alot!
I wake up b/w 6:30-7:30 depending on when Jenna wakes up
Other 2 are up at 7:30, we go potty, brush teeth, get dressed, make our beds then come down for breakfast at
8am Breakfast, then free play in the playroom while I feed Jenna, clean up kitchen etc.
9am Storytime
10am snack time those kids can eat all day long...
after snack we go outside to park/playground/walk/ whatever in good weather. If it's bad weather then we have Art time, playdoh, etc
Noon- Lunch
12:30 nap for little ones, older ones do quiet time/reading and we have our lessons for oldest.
2:30 Music Time
3pm snack (doesn't seem like they are always eating?LOL)
Back outside for scooters/bikes/swings, whatever. If weather is not as pretty then we do puzzles, games, etc, indoor educational activies.
4:30-5pm Art Time or writing practice/coloring if we art in the morning.
5pm I start dinner they free play, read, entertain themselves
5:30 eat
6pm they play with dad, get baths, get ready for bed
7pm -7:30 pm bedtime ritual of milk and yogurt, potty time, into bed.
Jenna doesn't go to bed until later but she takes two naps during the day.

We don't always stick to it, we change things and mix it up, but that is an average day here. On
Mondays they have class and we go to the lib. We don't watch TV but they do watch the occasional educational movie but that is normally on the weekends. I run most errands in the evening or we all go as a family on the weekends. I sneak on the computer before they wake up, during quiet time and after they are in bed (it helps they go to bed early)

Well Mon and Wed. our preschooler has preschool all morning. And on Tuesdays she has gymnastics and is out of the house from 8:15-11:30.

Every day, regardless, we are up around 6 or 6:30. We have breakfast and the kids watch cartoons. At 9 or so they (or just kate) have snack. We play (outside or inside- depending on weather) and around 11:30 have lunch. After lunch is nap time for them, I have my lunch and watch whatever I have tivo'd from the night before When they wake up between 1 and 2 oclock they usually have a small snack and watch a show to wake up while I do my afternoon cleaning. They play most of the afternoon. I start dinner around 4:45 or 5, and DH comes home. They play with him, and we eat dinner. The little one is in bed at 6:30 or 7, and the preschooler at 7:30.
