I believe whom ever made the first kids menus must have been a parent, they were not around when I was a kid, at best you would get a place mate to color on, with some of the most used crayons you have ever seen and maybe a small section in the back of the menu, next to the diet meals and Seniors meal section... Now, I can't think of a restaurant that does not have some special little menu with coloring areas and games, and you always get a new box of crayons to use... gone are the days of children being over looked. Now, they not only have there own special menus, but they can mix or match the food choices, to their own taste or desire that day. These kids menus are a great thing for the parents as well, it removes the issue of trying to explain to the child why the don't want their meat cooked rare or that smoked fish is not the best choice for them, and I have never seen a salad listed on only kid's menu, just fried and baked, and lots of Carmel dip, for the apple slices... My little guy Loves the apple slices with the Carmel dip... that is of course, after he is finished checking out the bathroom... I guess somethings never change.
My thought for the day: "Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation". (Oscar Wilde).
