Writings on the Paper Mat

Dining places which are children friendly always get a nod from me. I appreciate it that the owners (and their marketing and operations people) take initiatives to make the place comfortable for children. That makes perfect sense especially if the restaurant is generally catering to families.

Burgoo is one of them. They have the ready paper mat and crayons so guests can doodle as they wait for food. My daughter anticipates this whenever we dine there. She writes, she draws and makes borders.



I can see that not only kids do this. Even young couples and teenagers. It's fun as long as the food does not take that long to be served.


For mommies familiar with Plurk, maybe you can relate. I registered for phPlurk so I can update through text. (For the record, I am not really addicted to Plurk but I enjoy interacting with my mommy friends and other bloggers that I am familiar with. I usually plurk at night when all else is done.) I used to plurk even through text - what I am doing or where I am like when we were having our lunch at Burgoo. My daughter showed what she had written on the paper mat. She said her mom plurks a lot. Kids are very much aware of what we are doing, even the trivial things we do. :)
