Helpful tips and guidelines for social situations
A good refresher for adults and an instructional book to teach your kids on how to interact politely and appropriately in any given situation. Each topic is short and would be great to use at the dinner table, as you are driving in the car, or waiting at the doctor's office. Behaving appropriately helps everyone to put their best foot forward. Manners enrich our experience of living and the time we spend with each other. As Emily Post once said, “Manners are a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. If you have that awareness, you have good manners, no matter what fork you use." ~Amber
