What's the best way to keep kids entertained during a dinner party?
I'm having a dinner party and there are going to be four kids in attendence: ages 7, 6, 2 and a newborn. Well, I know I wont be able to entertain the newborn... but what about the other three?
Answers: Feed the children first!
If you have age-appropriate games, toys or activities for them, by all means let them use them. If not, go to your local library and ask the librarian about books with these activities and games.
Thanks for asking your Q! I enjoyed taking the time to answer it!

Yes, that's my real last name! Source(s):
I was in the Food & Beverage business over 26 years. One of the wonderful folks I worked for had a chain of 16 seafood restaurants. He sponsored a contest asking a Q very similar to your Q.
It just so happened the lady I was dating at the time answered with this answer. She won a substantial cash prize!
Thanks Paka! You could go to Blockbusters and get some good family movies for them to watch. Art supplies, things that require little or no supervision, like paper and cool crayons/colored pencils, origami paper, playdough so they can create their own dinner party! (if you have a good art area so the playdough doesn't get in a rug)...that can entertain kiddos for quite long time.
a collection of books they can read to each other get a movie or video games how about hiring a babysitter to entertain the children while the adults enjoy dinner and conversation hire a sitter to do it for you :) lock them in the garage Set up a kids table for the little ones, instead of a table cloth use butcher paper to cover the table and let them color on it.
Make some little special food for them that they can put together like celery w/peanut butter and give them raisins to make ants on a log or make them cheese, lunchmeat and crackers and let them make sandwhiches.
The 2 year old is going to be hard. The coloring will do her best. Id have a video available for after they eat too.
