My advice is to not schedule things after school for a while as well. They are physically and emotionally tired! Make sure they can come home and chill/break down, whatever they need. Also something that has helped my girls after school is a healthy protein snack. They are usually needing it and helps them not lose it and regulate. Reading their mood and when they’re ready to talk about the day etc, not pushing it. Making sure they get a substantial breakfast - even if it’s small, protein to start them off well for the day.
