Why You Should Have Your Next Family Night Out on The Patio at State Fare

When was the last time you had a family night out? If it’s been a while since your last family dinner, it may be time to take your crew on a trip to State Fare! Eating out with your family, especially in the relaxed environment of a patio, can help make even the littlest family members more comfortable and happy. Not to mention, our menu at State Fare offers options for even the pickiest eaters!

Encourage Flexibility

Kids can be picky and unwilling to try new things, but with the beautifully prepared meals and the relaxing environment of the patio at State Fare, they may be more willing to try a bite or two, or even more. Not only does encouraging them to try new things make meal planning easier for you at home, but it helps encourage and reward curiosity and adventure, both of which can help them build healthy habits and a strong mind.

Distraction Free Family Time

While restaurant dining does have its own unique distractions, it also removes children from TVs and toys to make eating and interacting more of the focus. Without the business and familiarity of home, eating out can allow you to build better habits and more meaningful connections.

Celebrate To Scale

From small treats to grand celebrations, eating out can help you mark a special event. From dessert out after a good report card to a fancy meal for graduation, eating out lets you celebrate every occasion.

Build Social Skills

For young and learning children, being exposed to others at dinner can be a great way to help teach and reinforce good manners and eating habits. Interacting with restaurant staff, waiting for your food, and even watching others can help your child uniquely learn manners and social skills.

Improve Communication Skills

Because meals at restaurants are often longer and less distracted, they’re the perfect time to work on conversation skills. Along with helping your children to learn new vocabulary, this is the ideal opportunity for them to work on sentence structure and even listening skills.
