Book: "365 Manners Kids Should Know"
(Games, activities, and other fun ways to help children learn Etiquette), written by Sheryl Eberly, 2001, ThreeRivers Press, New York, ISBN 0-609-80637-8
This book gives clever and insightful advice for the myriad of situations where consideration counts, but is sometimes forgotten. Using her smart one-manner-a-day format, parents, grandparents, and even aunts and uncles can find practical ways to teach basic manners, such as:
* How to address elders when being introduced
* How to write a thank-you note
* The polite way to answer the telephone
* How to accept and decline an invitation
* What is expected at formal occasions such as weddings, funerals, and religious services.
Full of role-playing exercises, games and other activities that parents can do with their children, 365 Manners Kids Should Know helps parents and other caregivers understand not only what manners to teach, but also how - and at what ages - to present them. Most important, this book makes learning manners fun. (I would like to note that I've not been paid for this. This is my personal genuine recommendation.)
What I particularly liked ...
* the depth of the content (from my personal experience I can say that this book has more to offer than some kids etiquette certification courses offered in the etiquette industry).
* the activities offered (it helps your child to learn about manners in a playful way.)
