- Always bring your own crayons/markers and coloring books or scrap paper.
- Keep interesting children's books in the car. An adult can easily dash to the car for back-up materials.
- For kids who are too old to color, try games like Tic-Tac-Toe , Hangman, or 20 Questions. Adults at the table should be included. It's more fun for the kids and will help keep them happy until the food comes.
- Choose a restaurant that seats and serves quickly. A long wait, coupled with hungry kids, can be a recipe for disaster.
- Dine early! Most kids go downhill as the evening progresses. Try to keep to your child's schedule or you will pay.
- For safety's sake, don't let your children run around the restaurant. A waiter carrying a hot tray could easily trip over a small child.
- If your child begins to scream and can't be consoled, take her outside until she is calm again. You'll appreciate the same courtesy when your children are grown.
