When I allowed the kids to bring toys from home, I had troubles with kids taking my toys home with them (hot wheels, trucks, planes, etc), so I stopped doing so.

I have set times for breakfast at my house. We need to take a couple of kids to school, so I serve breakfast until 7:30am. This gives the families who arrive at 7:25 time to finish their breakfast. If a child arrives with food they are welcome to eat it at the kitchen table, but when its time to get ready to go to school their breakfast is finished. I understand that a parent may sleep in and is rushed, but they usually only have to get one or two ready to get out the door. I have 6, it takes a lot longer to get all of them to the bathroom or diaper changed and into outdoor clothes. I need to start around 8 to have them all ready, and even earlier in the winter.

When I used to drive to preschool, a number of parents would tell their children that they could eat in my car. I had to tell the families no food in my car, its too messy and during the winter months I don't want to be vacuuming the car out when its freezing outside.
