i also find it easier with this age to do plates with clingfilm it can cause a bit of waste but feel better if they eat 1 sandwich and 1 sausage roll along with the cakes and sweets there is always oe kid who steals all the cakes and someone crying that they didnt get

So do you make up a plate for each child with the same on, rather than buffet style?? I like that idea... :j

Hi Skint! I am actually ok for table space, my table extends to take 10 adults easily, but because we end up using a mix of dining room chairs, office chairs and deck chairs it is tight to fit the chairs in plus not sure that children and deck chairs at a table works......... thank you!! :j


Lots of food for thought
