At some restaurants, children are given coloring books and crayons. Or word jumbles and mazes on their paper placemats. One pizza restaurant we went to gave children balls of dough to play with. Other places have play rooms and arcades to keep children entertained. But at the Crab Shack in Tybee Island, Georgia, they've taken a completely different approach. They've decided that the best way to keep children from getting antsy while they wait first for a table, then for their food, is to let them feed the alligators.
Guess what? This has been the best method yet.
We have 5 kids so keeping the occupied is a big deal in my house. We download a lot of audiobooks. There are lots of great sites to get them, but we use this site a lot because all the stories are free and original. http://www.twirlygirlshop.com/moral-stories-for-kids
