Fifteen establishments join trial scheme to encourage parents and children to talk while dining out

A group of restaurants in Sardinia are banning families from using smartphones and other devices at the table in a quest to encourage conversation.

The initiative, called A tavola senza schermi or At the table without screens, is being spearheaded by Anna Cau, the children’s ombudsman for the Italian island. It is part of a campaign to curtail excessive screen use among children and inspire interaction during meals.
