As we raise kids in this digital age, it seems as though manners can fall by the wayside. Here is a helpful list that can help serve as a reminder of what manners might be most important as children grow up.
- Say “Please” when asking
- Say “Thank you” when receiving
- Say “Excuse me” after bumping into someone
- Put down your electronics when someone enters the room
- Look people in the eye when speaking
- Let others finish before you speak
- Shake hands firmly
- Say “Yes Ma’am and Yes Sir” when talking to grownups
- Greet people with “Hi” and “How are you?”
- Open doors for others
