How to explain a Server to your child

A Server brings food and drinks to people who come to eat at a restaurant. They greet each table with a smile, hand out menus, and listen carefully to what everyone wants. For example, they might write down "one pasta, one soup, and a glass of juice," then carry the plates on a tray without spilling a drop. They also work with the cooks in the kitchen, check that everything looks right, and bring extra napkins or a spoon when someone needs one.

A Server helps people enjoy a meal together. When they remember that someone can't eat nuts, or bring a tiny cup for a little guest, they show they are paying attention. A good Server makes a hungry family feel welcome and looked after. Next time you eat at a restaurant, watch how they notice what each table needs.
