No electronics at the table, please!

I'm not the nicest mom, you can ask my kids.  I don't allow electronics at the table.  I don't allow electronics at restaurants, either.  Instead I have a little pouch with crayons, paper for games, an activity pad, and mini clipboards, if needed.  My kids love it!  I have recently found some cute cases to make it work a little better for me.  

               
We used to have a cute portfolio from The Piggy Story.  It got lost somewhere one day.  I still carried a diaper bag at the time so I just crammed the paper and crayons in the bag.  I no longer carry a diaper bag or even a big purse so I got this pink pouch from Walmart for $3.  It worked pretty good but I really wanted it to have handles and, to be honest, I wanted it cheap!


            
I found this little cutie for $8 at Big Lots!  My girls love it & I love that it has handles.  


            
I got this cute little Macbeth camera case from Garden Ridge for $4.  It holds a 24 pack perfectly!


            

This is the rest of the goods in the pouch.  My kids love that we have this in the car.  I'm not saying that when we go to dinner, I never play a competitive game of DOTS on my phone with my older daughter.  I'm just saying that they prefer the bag of goodies while they wait for their food and I prefer to play tic-tac-toe and color right along with them!  Get out there and color!
