We welcome October with the beginning of a poem about manners. Enjoy it with your children as a way to start off and keep your positive energy flowing.

 

The Magic Words of Manners

 

When it comes to children’s manners,

There’s a lot that you should know.

It’s more than “please” and “thank you,”

“Excuse me,” and “hello.”

 

It’s everything you say and do.

It’s how you treat a friend.

It’s all the ways you are polite.

It’s messages you send.

 

October! The Month of Positive Energy

The poem continues…

Sometimes it’s when you’re in your home.

Sometimes it’s when you’re not.

It does not matter where you are.

Your manners mean a lot.

 

NOTE: More of this poem will be published in future tips all month long.
