TEACHING CHILDREN ANIMAL SENSE AND MANNERS by Diana Guerrero We have increasingly become more distant from our animal friends. Many children have no idea what the proper rules regarding animals are. Some approach strange animals with reckless abandon, while others shrink away in terror at the mere sight of one. What should you teach your child about animals and when should you start? The answer is to start at an early age and ease into more complicated situations gradually. The ideal time to begin is when a child first starts to notice movement and begins to recognize familiar sights. This is a good time to start pointing out animals and their names. Examples of opportunities are to point out birds and lizards at the park, or butterflies and bees in the backyard. These good beginnings will include having the child listen and look from a distance. Next, you can visit pet stores, zoos, and animal related places to point out animals in a controlled setting. It is not a good idea to teach a child to reach out for an animal. Many kids get injured because they take the liberty of approaching a strange animal and instigating contact. Petting zoos are not always ideal unless you work without food and make sure the child is not intimidated or run over by the animals housed in one.

When it comes to children, rule number one is always "be an example" because children learn what is expected of them by what you expect of yourself and practice. If your children have bad manners, I would bet that you have bad manners as well. Please. If you ask for something, say "please." Some parents find it awkward to say "please" to their children, but children deserve your respect. Remind your children to say "please" by refusing to respond to their request until they use the term It won't take long before they start saying it without being nagged. Encourage them to say full sentences when using the word "please." Otherwise, you'll end up hearing an annoyed and whiney "please" when you have to remind them. "May I please...," "Would you please...," and "Yes, please" are simply more pleasant.

Home Bio Cotillion Children's Classes ... Dining Skills Tips Lois Hearn Etiquette Consultant Chattanooga, TN lois@yourmanners.com Press Releases Sunday, August 7, 2005 Good manners not just nice By Mark Kennedy, Columnist Lois Hearn had one of those genteel South Carolina mothers who enforced good manners with a smile and a switch. "I can still see my brother with his arms spread out on the table,'' said Mrs. Hearn, "and I can hear my mother say, 'Art, what time does the airplane take off, dear?' '' If the children became too unruly, Mrs. Hearn remembers, her mother would simply raise an eyebrow and nod in the direction of her purse, which everyone knew contained a folded-up switch that could make little legs dance. In the South, we understand that our good manners frame our reputations. They are the first thing people notice when we enter a room and the calling card we leave when we walk out. Unfortunately, good manners are not passed down to children genetically. They must be taught, polished and occasionally imposed. For the record, I believe good manners are simply the manifestations of a good heart. Etiquette, on the other hand, involves the codified rules of polite society. In my opinion, good manners are essential, proper etiquette is pretty ritual like a crew rowing a boat.

94. Etiquette: Teaching Children Manners Teaching etiquette and manners to your children should start early. To a toddler. http://nmnm.essortment.com/etiquettechildr_rzof.htm

Etiquette: teaching children manners Teaching etiquette and manners to your children should start early. To a toddler "please" and "thank you" is a necessary part of growing up. Your child learns manners (along with many other character traits) from you. They grow up watching you interact with others and learn how to act and behave. That’s why it’s so important for parents to behave politely and civilly with other, so their children will grow up to be similar people. When you interact with your friends, be sure to say “please” and “thank you” in front of your kids. When your children see that that’s really how people interact, they’ll be more respectful of others and will be more likely to exhibit these traits themselves. If you aren’t polite to others, your children will be less likely to be polite to others. When you’re teaching your children to be polite, you need to give them frequent lessons in what to say in particular situations. You need to tell your children that they should say “excuse me” when they are wanting to get through a crowd of people. They need to say “please” when they are requesting someone’s services or help. And they need to say “thank you” whenever someone does something nice for them. These words should considered “magic” words between you and your children. They should be held in esteem and be used often. There’s really not “trick” to teaching your children manners. You need to be aware that your children learn manners from you. They learn them both in the way you act and in what you tell them to do. Believe it or not, children listen when you tell them things. They think you are god-like. They think you have all the answers and know exactly what to do in every situation. You need to take advantage of this by showing them proper behavior, and they’ll grow up to be polite young men and women and later polite adults.

teaching children about manners Good Manners By Dionna Sanchez Good manners. How often are they discussed in your home? How often are they reinforced? It becomes very clear to me when I am in someone else's home, what manners I've neglected to enforce in my children. But on the other hand, it's so nice to receive praise on behalf of my children when their good manners and efforts are noticed! I also understand that my children follow my example. I can say, "chew with your mouth closed," but they will be the first ones to catch me if I don't follow suit! And good manners encompass more than just sitting up straight, saying please and thank-you, or not burping at the table. Good manners include being consistent in who you are, being honest, having class and good etiquette and being timely to appointments, games or get-togethers. Have you noticed some of these efforts being lost? I sure have. It seems like nobody is on time anymore. And how many boys or gentlemen open doors for others? Manners are more than boring chores to follow each day. They say a lot about a person's character. Are they considerate or self-absorbed? Consider how the manners are in your family unit. Strive to be a positive example and influence while stressing to your children the value good manners hold. Everyone will enjoy the benefits of helpful, kind, polite and considerate people. Especially your child.

Rabia, 23, is a new mother. She wants to teach her child manners but doesn't know what age to start; she's also wondering what exactly she should teach her child. Her baby is only a newborn, so she is just thinking ahead. Jaweed, 28, told Islamic Voice that he was confused as to how to teach his children not to talk loudly and be polite to people. Siraj, 27, recently ate dinner with his wife, at a posh Mumbai restaurant. What worried him was the loud noise of chewing from her. Aftab, 23, was eating lunch in a restaurant with a co-worker when his mobile rang. When he answered it, his co-worker teased him later for not “knowing mobile phone etiquette.” Since he has seen other people in the restaurant use their phones, he's confused about the basics of mobile use and has asked the company for guidance. One area where there is some controversy and haziness is the rules of etiquette. While there are some basic guidelines which are described below, much is simply based on a gut instinct for common courtesy.
