My wife says if we invite our friends and their 3 year olds to my childs birthday at a restaurant that its customary to pay for everyone. Is this reasonable?

Customary? Yes.

Reasonable? That's far more complicated. Really depends on your own values

I'd say it's also reasonable. as guests are expected to bring gifts.
