Dinner (supper for farm people & southerners) is a time to engage with your family and discuss intellectually stimulating topics such as politics or the economy while consuming mostly organic plants grown from your own garden.
Just kidding. If you’re like me, you have: kid activities, homework, work at home projects, three loads of laundry, two loads of dishes, and on and on. A three course meal isn’t really in the cards for you… but every once in a while, the stars align and you sit down together for a relatively healthy meal (there are chicken nuggets in the freezer, as we speak).
Enter Mardi Gras Smart Mouth Napkins. My 6-year-old practically begs me to do “the questions” on these napkins. I don’t have to pull teeth to get my kids talking about their day because the napkins do all the work. In a Napoleonesque rampage, I proudly stole the idea from another mom (#village). Unlike Napoleon, I’m sharing the tip with y’all because…Napoleon and Ghandi were best friends. Google it! (just kidding. don’t do that).
The conversation starting napkins help focus your kids on helpful topics like: What made you stand out today? What’s the most ridiculous thing you heard today? Was it an entire blog post about napkins? You’re a world traveler, what’s your next stop?
Mardi Gras’ creativity trumps the imaginative processing of my brain after a full day which results in: what did you learn in school today = nothing. They eliminate frustration and motivate from within. These miracle napkins make kids eat everything on their plates. Just kidding… napkins have limits.
I am sharing this information with you…the reader…in hopes that you will find it useful. Here’s the questions that actually get answers!
