How to enjoy a meal with children
Do you find yourself wishing for the days when you could sit down, order a beverage and a nice dinner and be able to finish your meal without hearing “I’m bored”, “Can we go now?” With small children, this can be a challenge!
You don’t have wait until the children are grown, there is a way to do that now! Look for restaurants that have entertainment for the children. They know the value of a good meal uninterrupted and they put the extra effort to make sure that you have an enjoyable time at their table. While coloring pages are a beginning, a child who has a short attention span is not going to be as entertained long. Often the same restaurants that offer entertainment will offer a kids eat free day on the same day as the entertainment, like Millers Rockville Ale House on the Rockville Pike in Rockville, MD. Tuesday is kids day with them and Trist’n Shout is on site making balloons from 6-8 for the kids and helping parents to have an enjoyable family dinner without the drama. Try it out and you can once again enjoy a meal with a cold beverage and happy kids who want to stay longer while they are waiting for their balloons or just watching all the fun things that are being made throughout the night.
Mondays you can find Trist’n Shout at Senor Tequilas, 20021 Century Blvd, Germantown, MD from 6-8.
If you are in Western, Md Buffalo Wild Wings in LaVale, MD has balloons and facepainting from 5-8. Check out the local offerings from your area to find restaurants that offer entertainment for kids and ask your favorite restaurant if they would consider bringing some fun to their restaurant. If the managers know there is interest, you might find they are willing to add some value to their restaurant.
