Before coming to the table:
. Wash your hands before sitting down to eat. Never eat with your hands.
. Leave toys, books, and pets behind. Televisions should be switched OFF at mealtimes.
. If you have a cold or a sniffle make sure you have given your nose a good blow.
. Polite dinner conversation is a sign you are growing up. Adults may ask you what you did at school today so think of the answers you can provide.
At the table:
. When you sit down, place the napkin in your lap.
.Sit up straight and don't slouch.
. Ask politely for dishes to be passed. Never reach across the table.
. Wait until everyone is seated and served before starting to eat. If grace is said, do not eat until it is completed. Don't giggle during grace.
.Never talk while another person is talking.
. Sniffling is considered EXTREMELY rude. Leave the table and blow your nose.(Sniffling is VERY bad manners in every situation)
Eating etiquette:
.Never chew with your mouth open
. Never talk with a mouth full of food. Never put too much food in your mouth at the one time.
. Use utensils quietly without banging them on the table or plate. You should place your knife softly on the edge of the plate when not in use.
