December 22, 2011 at 10:18 amYES! I was on pinterest last night typing “kids christmas table” and “kids christmas placeholders” into the search and getting the 502 (?) error over and over and over. This is just what I needed. I’m going out shopping tonight for last minute things so if I need any supplies I’ll have time to stock up and get everything put together! Thank you for your timely post!

December 22, 2011 at 12:53 pmThis is great, Deb! We don’t have any children yet but I still love learning so much now. It’s the best time to learn, I think. Thanks again and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Deb says
December 22, 2011 at 2:07 pmThanks so much, Fawn! I’m excited that you’re learning as much as you can about parenting now. I was happy I was a certified Montessori teacher before I became a parent … my education became a natural part of my parenting. Not everyone has that choice, but the more you can learn early the better! I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, too! 🙂

December 23, 2011 at 8:49 pmI love the ideas. Often the hostess will put forth tremendous effort towards the main dinner table and completely overlook the children’s table… Hello! Kids want to see their table dressed up too!
Deb says
December 24, 2011 at 2:48 pmThanks, Victoria! That’s so true … and it can be a lot of fun to prepare a special kids’ table! Merry Christmas! 🙂
