It is very important to teach a child from childhood to etiquette, to the ability to see and love beauty. Therefore, when preparing for a children's holiday, you need to think over not only entertainment, treats and room decoration, but also the setting of a special table.
Instructions
Step 1
If you want your child to know how to use cutlery, to know how to behave at the table, be especially careful about serving.
Step 2
Keep in mind that it should be etiquette, but also interesting and unusual.
Step 3
Decide in advance on the theme of the holiday and stick to this in decorating the table. If you have a boy, you can organize a holiday, for example, in a nautical style.
Step 4
Pay attention to the tablecloth. Don't go for traditional whites. Stop your choice on some bright one. At a sea party, there can be tablecloths with boats or blue, in the color of the sea. Then napkins can be folded in the form of boats and placed on the table.
Step 5
If possible, hang peakless caps or striped collars on the backs of chairs. Guests will be delighted to look like real sailors.
Step 6
The color of the dishes should match the tone you decide to stick to. Do not place expensive, breakable plates or glasses on the table. Choose something more durable. The shop sells special plates and cutlery for children. They are bright and safe to use.
Step 7
You can prepare special flags for a sea party. Place them in cups next to each cutlery, or decorate a dessert dish with them.
Step 8
Do not put a vase of flowers in the center of the table, as usual. It will be much more interesting for children to see some fairytale hero. For example, Captain Vrungel or Cat Matrosskin. Can be placed in the center and pirates with a treasure chest. Put sweets in it. Children will certainly want to look into it and will be pleasantly surprised.
Step 9
For treats, it is better to prepare portioned dishes. Babies are very fond of fruit canapes. Decorate your meals beautifully. For example, you can make a basket out of a watermelon by filling it with a variety of fruits.
Step 10
Consider small souvenirs for guests as well. These can be small tubes in the form of a telescope with various goodies inside.
Step 11
If you want to follow these recommendations, the holiday will be fun and unforgettable.
