This is something that my family has been doing for generations. The kids table at Thanksgiving and Xmas is a big deal, with their own separate side dishes and entrees. For holiday get togethers, does your family set up separate table for the kids?

LOL yes we do, there are a lot of kids so they always get their own table. However they get the same dishes the adults get only served on their own table.

I generally have a house full at the holidays but we all eat at the same table.

We had one, but it really wasn't that big of a deal.

My own personal preference is not to seat the kids separately. Totally just personal preference.

I think as kids we just ate on the floor, or on the couch. Usually though it was just us so everybody sat at the table.

We've never had enough room to accomodate guests beyond a certain number so people tend to sit where ever. But as long as the kid has enough teeth they eat what we eat.

No, I can't recall us ever setting up a kids table. Not when I was younger, or now. All the kids usually just sit at the big table with everyone else.

Thankfully we never had a kids table, I say thankfully because if they had we would have missed some really funny stuff.

So we never had one for our kids either, they ate what we ate as soon as they were out of the high chair. Actually as soon as they had enough teeth , however I remember my oldest daughter sitting in her high chair with a spare rib bone gnawed clean, with just 2 teeth.

Sounds like my grandmother.
