So just because you have children doesn’t mean you stop wanting to go out to eat. But toddlers don’t always (or ever!) want to sit around a restaurant table discussing their day while they wait for their entree. So save yourself the annoyance of wrestling with your 2 year old to try to keep them in their seat and when the bread basket arrives, bring out a sticker book. I’m not sure what it is about stickers that children find so captivating but those sticky little images are a godsend. We have a Sesame Street sticker book that has kept Mr Moo occupied for many restaurant visits. I wouldn’t dine out without it!
Sticker books aren’t expensive and they are easy to roll up and tuck into your handbag or changing bag. So sit back and enjoy that slice of chocolate tart and go ahead and order that latte. It sure beats having to bribe them with ice cream!
Here are a few good value options (they’re all under £3 each) :
Bon Appetit!
