The boys had a fancy lunch this afternoon and learned some etiquette for E day. We read a book we got from the library that taught them:-Wash your hands before eating
-Put your napkin in your lap and use it to wipe your hands and mouth
-Cut your food into bite sized pieces
-Don't talk with your mouth full
-Don't play with your food
-Be willing to try new foods
-Ask to be excused before leaving the table
We kept to the basics since these are some of the things we struggle with, using the proper fork with each course is not exactly a priority :) Of course they thought it was fun, they used our "nice" dishes and cloth napkins and set up a little table just for them. They were full of manners today but I'm sure it won't last long...
