Being thankful by saying please and thank you tops the list. Teach the kids not to interrupt when someone is talking. Patience is the key to that skill. Teach the kids to keep unpleasant opinions about others to themselves, especially in the grocery store line or at the restaurant. Use words to build people up instead of teasing or making fun of others. Do not pick the nose in public. If there is something in the mouth or nose, remove it with a napkin. Cover the mouth when sneezing. This simple habit will make a big difference especially when living with many siblings. Holding the door open for other people and closing the door behind oneself are great manners to have. A very important polite habit to have is putting the electronic device down when someone is talking. Making eye contact and showing the speaker that someone is listening will make everyone happy.
