Toms River Mom

I came across a website called Perks Variety and they have some great gifts for kids.  Beginner Dinner Games, however, hit home.  I feel like every night at dinner there is a battle with my toddlers, so I got this and tried it out.  It was great - our three year old was loving the questions and after every answer she gave she had to take a bite of her food or else we couldn’t go on to the next one.  Somehow, it worked like a charm.  And, our one year old had no clue what we were asking – but enjoyed mimicking her sister when it was “her turn”!  It was loads of fun and it made our dinner time last longer.  Now we look forward to dinner time rather than dread it.  Thanks Frank!!
