GOOD MANNERS MAKE THE BEST
IMPRESSIONS
(Ages 7-12)
Wherever your child is on the "manners scale," these classes are sure to
enhance their skills while offering lifetime benefits. Designed to be fun and
interactive, the first week focuses on powerful first impressions and proper
introductions. There's a segment on thank-you note guidelines too. The next
class is all about getting rid of bad behaviors during mealtime, along with
setting a table and practicing with actual food, utensils, and linens. Share food
allergies at time of registration.
