How strict...

are they about kids meals? My kids will be 11 and 13 when we go and neither of them are big eaters. It seems like I could easily order kids meals at any counter service meal, but what about table service?

We just ate at a resort restaurant in June. A member of my party did not want a big meal and ask if she could just have the kids mac and cheese. Waiter said no problem, she even got it on the Mickey plate. I dont think you will have a problem with this at all. Just explain to the hostess, before you are seated, that you would like them to have the children's menu.

We shared a couple of times at table service due to large portions. It wasn't an issue.

Good to know.

Just realize that the kids meal are very repetitive and high in salt, fat and lacking of veggies. The kkid's menus are riddled with chicken nuggets (not tenders,) french fries, mac and cheese, hamburgers, etc.

I would look into splitting adult meals or ordering an appetizer as an entree.

99% of the time you can downgrade from an adult meal to a kids meal (sometimes they give an adult portion of a kids menu item) but I have never heard of being able to upgrade from a kids meal to an adult meal (not for you OP but anyone who may be curious).

I think you are assuming that the OP is on the dining plan. When paying out of pocket at a non buffet/AYCE type place any guest may order any items they wish.
