Restaurant · Edinburgh
Italian food is an easy sell with children, and here you can order a kids' menu alongside the grown-up plates, so nobody's negotiating over a shared portion. High chairs are on hand for the smallest ones, and step-free access means the buggy comes in with you rather than being folded on the doorstep. Vegan and gluten-free options are marked, which takes the stress out of an allergy or a fussy eater. It's a lively room, so a bit of toddler noise won't stand out — worth booking ahead for a table.

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.
