Spring Adventures: Dining Al Fresco with Kids
Spring has officially arrived, and you know what that means—time to let the kids roam free! Right?
One of the things I adore about the warmer months is how my little ones prefer dining al fresco. Even if it’s drizzling a bit, I’ll haul their cute little picnic table to the sheltered area of the patio. Not only is it charming, but it also means less cleanup indoors! Sure, they might dash around and nibble at their food like little squirrels, but you know what? The open air (or perhaps a nearby sandbox) helps reduce those dinner complaints.
Our Favorite Picnic Table
Right now, you can grab this delightful picnic table on Amazon for just $40! It’s the perfect solution. We hardly ever use the umbrella since I often forget it’s there, but it’s handy on those blazing sunny days. What I appreciate most? A quick blast with the hose washes it off beautifully, and it folds up neatly against a wall during the “off-season”—though it seems like ours is always in use!
We often bring it inside for arts and crafts, birthday parties, or just to have extra seating. It may not be that picturesque rustic wood table you see in magazines, but it gets the job done. My toddler can safely use it, and my second-grader still fits comfortably for meals. We bought it when our oldest was just starting to walk, and it’s held up remarkably well. Definitely worth every penny!
