kiddy table
Pint-sized dining spot
A kiddy table is the smaller, separate table where children sit during holiday meals or family gatherings, apart from the adults at the main table.
The term often carries a figurative sense of being excluded from serious matters or treated as junior: I'm forty years old and they still put me at the kiddy table.
Also spelled kiddie table.
