Need Ideas for Stuff to Keep a 1 Year Old Busy When We're at a Restaurant

My little one is super active, and when we go out with our friends for dinner, he gets bored QUICKLY. I'd like to put together a "kit" of things to bring with us so he doesn't dissolve into a fit before we get to eat. Dinner only keeps him happy for so long, then he wants down and out! What do you other moms do with kiddos this age? He's a little too little to color - he just wants to chew on the crayon.
