Have you about lost your grip with what you are seeing at the dinner table night after night? Do you see spaghetti clinging to your child’s tonsils and elbows firmly embedded in the table? Wanna do something about it?
Introducing Manner-Minders—a simple system to encourage good table manners without being negative about the bad ones.
Simply put the 18 Manner-Minder cards in a bowl in the middle of the table and after everyone’s seated and you’re ready to eat dinner, have an adult read the card of the night and tell the children that is the focus for the meal—that one manner for the night.
By using Manner-Minders, you allow the cards to do the talking—no more saying, “Elbows off the table, Tommy! How many times do I have to tell you?” Instead, you just enjoy your children and praise them when you catch them practicing their good manners! Your encouragement will help them learn this important life skill.
Also included is our invaluable table setting placemat. After your child adds their personal touch to the colorable placemat, watch them master the placement of their silverware, plate, napkin and such.
These two great tools will make gathering around the dinner table a pleasure at your house!
Includes: Manner Minder instructions, 18 cards, Placemat instructions and printable Placemat.
