depends on the kid. My older dd took a nap for a looong time, she needed it but then she was up late so I realize that might not work but I would say down time- think snack, listening to a story to decompress from playgroup. After nap we would often go to the playground.

Big snack and drink and then coloring, chalk, books, or another calming activity after a busy day.

If they're tired and hungry, then address is as firebrick said- snack, books, audio book. We also have bins for spacial times. Ex: Monday take out puzzle bin, Tuesday duplo bin, etc. That can take up time. You can slap do one project that isn't messy. Ex: sheet of stickersey and they put it on paper, you put Dots of glue and they put on squares of colored paper, coloring sheets...

My kids love when I turn on children CDs. Shmuel Kunda's Baruch series is excellent and very calming. It's on all afternoon in my house.
Coloring, sticker activities, duplo, and books keep my kids very occupied.
And yes, the house gets very messy and then we clean up!
Good Luck!
