You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Like it or not, people judge you and your parents by your table manners. You can wear the prettiest clothes and be extremely smart, and have a warm heart, but if you don’t know how to use a knife and fork correctly, you will not be invited to important events. Correct basic manners are easy and fun to learn. This book will teach you basic dining skills quickly and easily.
The reading level for our book is ages 5-10, but it can be enjoyed by the whole family.
Our book is full of beautiful illustrations that make learning good manners fun.
Our book is a great way to start your child on the path to having good manners throughout their life.
"Ladies, Congratulations on such an important initiative designed to help prepare children manage, maneuver and navigate the WORLD with success and confidence in areas where they may not even believe or know they are being judged. A lunch time job interview is more than one might think."
"I just wanted to say congratulations to you both as I’m so excited for you. To be honest, I didn’t even know how to set my table. I eat with only a spoon and I only use a fork when I’m eating my salad. I even use the spoon when I’m eating spaghetti. I will be hosting a virtual training for my great nieces and nephew. Thank you all so much."
"Great gift for Grandparents to give this season."
"Just ordered a couple more copies to donate to the kids classrooms at Park Road Montessori in Charlotte, NC."
"I love the fact that you ladies included the Basic Table Manners certificate on the last page of the book. Great idea!"
"It’s a terrific Christmas gift and a wonderful keepsake. I’m looking forward to your continued success."

You make your first impression on someone very fast – within just a few seconds of meeting them. It’s so much better to make a good first impression than to try and fix a bad one. This is especially important when job-seeking or meeting new people. Most people don’t think about their posture when they’re with others, but your posture is one of the first things people see when they meet you for the first time. The way you hold yourself shows much more about you than you may realize – body language is a powerful thing. Good posture makes for a great impression. Slouching is a super no-no. Slouching can make you look unprofessional, lacking certainty and like you simply don’t care about yourself or others. Whereas a person who stands, walks or sits up straight shows confidence, caring and competence. So, who would you respect? The sloucher or the person who stands tall and moves with ease and grace?

No one wants to look sloppy, clumsy or uncool, especially when eating out with new friends or at an important lunch date. Your kids can learn early on the table manners for messy foods, and then when they’re out on that important business lunch when they’re all grown up, they’ll sail though it looking like a pro. There are ways to enjoy the most famously messy eats without making a mess of oneself. Overall, the best way to eat messy foods is not to rush and to take small bites. And here’s how to eat two of the messiest… Burgers Burgers seem to have been made just to defy one’s ability to keep clean and neat. But there is a way to avoid the mess when all those juicy, scrumptious insides come oozing out… First, put a tray under your burger to catch any fallout, and then guess what? There’s a way to hold your burger. Flip the burger upside down – the top half of a burger bun is much thicker than the bottom. So, by flipping it upside down, the ingredients will be sitting on a firmer support and less likely to create a mess. Buffalo Wings De-bone your Buffalo wings! Take the bones out before you take a bite by removing the cartilage on the wide end of the wing and then twist the small bone – it’ll easily pull out. Do the same with the large bone, then you’re ready to eat that wing.
