My son is 2 & 1/2 so I’m slightly in the same boat as you except I only have 1 other child (7) so I’m not sure if you would even call it family studies yet. I tried the “morning basket” idea of clumping all of those family friendly subjects into one time of the day and it did not work even for my 7 year old. I found that we do best personally alternating reading/listening with handwritten subjects. (Bible, then math, then a few readings clumped together such as poetry, habits & Literature, then copy work, then history then artist study etc. So she is never sitting and listening for a super long stretch.). Anyways, for my 2 yr old, we do Bible during breakfast so his food keeps him busy. Haha. When I read poems, habits & literature both of my kids do a quiet, tactile activity such as coloring, sketching/scribbling, blocks etc. My 7 year old has to do this in order to listen. During other reading times, he may just be playing by himself. (He loves his trains). I rotate toys which also helps. I learned pretty quickly that he is still too young to be trusted with paint or play dough when I’m not looking at him. He ate both.
