It was full of a variety of game ideas we could play at the dinner table. On a recent trip to Chick-fil-A we got a mini pack of Dinner Games in a kids’ meal. They also come in a variety of categories so you can choose the ones that are most appropriate for your family. Similar to TABLETOPICS, Chat Packs are filled with dinner conversation topic ideas. They even have a wide selection of To Go packs so you can take them with you when you eat out.
