For affordable and fun placemats that your little ones will love, save the free maps you get at the zoo, aquarium or other kid-friendly attraction, and laminate it at your local copy or office supply shop. They’ll hold your children’s attention and make mealtime fun, and they’re super-easy to wipe clean after the meal is done. You can even have the kids create their own placemats with supplies as simple as crayons and construction paper!
