    YES! 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!

    This 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!

      Thanks 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! 🙂

    I 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!
