Honestly - a nap.
The oldest is the only one who really struggles, so I take an extra few minutes to lay with her and assure her that she will see mom and dad next week, and go over the routine, then let her just sleep it off.
She is so overstimulated and frustrated that she just wakes up a whole new, normal kid after a nap.
