Danger that lies within the napkin...

My kids know that knives are dangerous! That is why my oldest child, age 6, must ask permission to have a butter knife to help make her lunch. My 3 year old likes to help too! But, he must have a grown-up help him. Recently, we were out at a local pizza place for dinner. A fork, knife and spoon wrapped in a napkin were at every place setting. My son took the napkin and shook out its contents. He immediately removed the knife and handed it to me. It made me so happy that he remembers what the rules are. And, it makes me think he is a bit safer because of it.
