    At fancy get-togethers, my step used to serve some sort of red or white juice in Bordeaux glasses for the children, when adults had wine and sparkling juice in flutes when when we had champagne. It served two purposes: it prepared children for adult formal events while also making the children feel more important. And if a kid’s table was necessary, yes, an adult sat with the kids, to assist as necessary.
