Manners

In November I taught a joy school class about manners. Perfect for right before Thanksgiving. It was really fun. We talked about every day manners - "please" and "thank you" and "excuse me" etc. and table manners- putting your napkin on your lap, using your fork, taking small bites, chewing with your mouth closed and saying “thank you."

I made a place mat for each of them that showed where their cup, plate, knife, fork and spoon went. Then they practiced setting their place at the table and using their manners during snack time. They were all so cute!
