Thanksgiving Kids' Table

The Thanksgiving Kids’ Table shouldn’t be feared. Here are some tips on how to make even the adults want to say, “I want to sit at the Kids’ dining table too!”

You always hear about the dreaded Thanksgiving kids’ table, but I like to make it special, too! I want to create a table that any adult would be honored to sit at, but make it so special that kids would proudly say “this table is just for us!” Thanksgiving is a wonderful opportunity to teach our children about being thankful. Despite having a separate dining table for them {for ease of space & accessible height}, I want them to feel included.

Make the Thanksgiving Kids' table special.

I found a darling table runner that added a little fall color to the girls’ cream & pink table set. I added squirrel & owl bowls along with some irresistibly cute owl salt & pepper shakers.
