Step 1: Time it 選擇一個(gè)恰當(dāng)?shù)臅r(shí)間
If your child is still a baby, feed, burp, and change them as close as possible to your departure. With any luck, they’ll sleep through the meal.
Step 2: Rehearse it 提前排練在飯店就餐的注意事項(xiàng)
With toddlers, rehearse the outing at home. Emphasize that dining out is a privilege and explain that good behavior is essential; otherwise you’ll all have to leave the restaurant before having a chance to eat.

Step 3: Choose a restaurant wisely 明智的選擇飯店
Choose restaurants that accept reservations and seat guests promptly. Find out in advance if they provide kid-friendly food.

Avoid family restaurants if “family” is code for letting children run wild — being in that environment may inadvertently teach your kids that this is acceptable behavior at all eateries.
Step 4: Set limits 設(shè)定一些限制
Eat early. Keeping kids up past their bedtime is just asking for trouble. Try to keep the outing to no longer than 90 minutes by ordering promptly and having dessert and coffee at home. Longer than that, and kids are apt to get restless.

Step 5: Bring diversions 就餐時(shí)間增加娛樂(lè)活動(dòng)
Bring discreet diversions as well as special treats you can whip out to neutralize a tantrum. Include some finger food favorites in case your child gets fussy.

Offer young children a choice of two items on the menu; otherwise they might be overwhelmed by the selection.
Step 6: Respect other diners 尊重其他的用餐者
If your child is making a scene, take them outside until they calm down. If they can’t be quieted, get your food to go. And tip generously, especially if your child has made a big mess. If you don’t, neither you nor your child will be welcomed back!
