Indian · South Shields
Curry with small children usually means checking whether the place can cope, and this one has the basics sorted — high chairs ready and a proper kids' menu, so a toddler is catered for without you packing snacks as backup. Noise levels tend to sit on the quiet side, which suits a calmer early tea more than a rowdy one, and it's worth ringing ahead to book so you're not stood in the doorway with a buggy while a table is found. Gluten-free dishes are available if that's something you're working around, and prices sit at the gentler end.

A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
