Do kittens grow out of walking on dining tables?

I've got 12 week old kittens and made the dining room their base, as it's a nice light room, not too hot or too cold, and I've removed everything breakable (not just for my sake but for the sake of their little paws). However, they keep walking on my dining table and I wondered if they will grow out of this?

They come into the living room in the evenings/weekends, when I'm there (can't leave them in there alone as they LOVE the wires behind the TV) and the little boy has discovered the curtains, although the little girl ignores them. I've got a water bottle today, as advised by friends, just feel a little bad about squirting them... does this method work, and will it deter or frighten him? I have never shouted at them, don't agree with this, as surely this would frighten them (as it would with any baby).
Thank you, some of you have been really constructive :-)
It sounds like I'll have more luck training them to keep off my curtains than the table, but hay, it can be cleaned lol x
