First of all, the dinner table is really important to kids because there's food there. As much as people laugh kids do enjoy eating as much as the next person and just the experience of sharing that is important. The dinner table is also great for kids because it's a time when you're looking at each other and you really get mom and dad's attention and your brothers and sisters are paying attention to you. It's a nice time to put everything aside and really talk to each other while eating. It is always fun.
