Need I point out how fun it is for kids to eat this way, they'll think they've died and gone to heaven, although with 2 hungry and rambunctious boys, we needed to put down some place mats to ensure that our dining table didn't get ruined with trails of polenta and ragu (although we resorted to giving them small plates in the end). We told them that if anyone broke the "retaining wall" of polenta before the centre and bottom polenta was scooped out then the game was lost. This ensured that the boys didn't do what boys love to do and that seems to be destroying or smashing up things (which in turn saved my dining table).
