It’s difficult to keep small
children entertained when you take them out to an adult restaurant. It’s
important to keep them happy and involved so that they feel part of the
occasion; even though everything is miles too big for them. For example, after
my youngest niece finished her baby food, our waitress kept her entertained by
feeding her pieces of watermelon which she absolutely loved. But bigger
children who lose their cuteness aren’t that easily amused; especially if they’ve
just managed to fall off their chair. Not everyone has an area for them to run
around and explore or to make new friends; particularly if it’s dark or wet or
in a confined space. Inevitably the video game device comes out so that they
can detach themselves from our world and enter their own. But this discourages
them from joining in with the group and devolves their contribution to the
gathering. So, it’s important to involve them while you meet and eat.
