Having my kids in the kitchen during “those final moments before dinner is on the table” is not ideal (for me anyways)…they trapse through the kitchen, leaving a trail of toys behind, causing me to almost trip. They dilly-dolly when it comes to getting spoons, cups, forks to the table. I want the boys to be responsible and helpful members of our family…so they set the table.
But I also don’t want them in my kitchen while I’m scooting to and fro getting dinner ready to put on the table.
Then I had an epiphany…
This is a great idea. I have our girls do that and they think it is fun.
