1. Greeting etiquette

Take the initiative to say hello, for familiar people, children generally know how to address each other; For unfamiliar people, parents can tell their children in advance how to address each other, or teach them to greet each other with a gesture in advance: hugging fists.

The traditional New Year's greeting gesture has been different between men and women since ancient times, and the standard male posture is to form a fist with the right hand, wrap the left hand, and shake it back and forth. Because the right hand is an attacking hand, it should be wrapped as a sign of kindness. The woman is the opposite, but the woman does not hold her fists, but only presses her hands and shakes them back and forth.

In this way, the child can be more natural and generous when meeting and greeting.

2. New Year's greeting etiquette

In terms of New Year's greetings, parents can teach their children to say auspicious words and greetings such as "Wishing you prosperity", "Happy New Year", "Good health", and "All the best".

3. Etiquette for receiving red envelopes

When the elders give the red envelope, the children should take it with both hands and say "thank you". If the child is too young to do it, parents can hold the child's hand, take the red envelope with both hands, and then take the child together to say "thank you".

Tell the child in advance that you can't open the red envelope in front of the guest, which is rude. The best thing to do is to put the red envelope in Mom and Dad's bag or your own bag right away.

4. Table manners

When eating, invite the elders to sit down first, and do not let the children sit first or "strike first".

When picking up food, you can't pick and choose from the plate, but take what is in front of you. If you want to eat a dish that is far away, your child can ask the parent to help you serve some or pass it on.

When chewing food, try not to make a sound, and don't talk when there is food in your mouth.

Every detail in the dining process reflects a person's upbringing, parents should cultivate their children's civilized "eating appearance" from an early age, not only pay attention to the nutrition on the table, but also the education on the table.

5. Hospitality etiquette

When there are guests, parents should guide and encourage their children to greet them cordially and proactively. They will use the "please" gesture to invite guests into the door, ask them to sit down, hand them a glass of water with both hands, and say "please drink water" at the same time.

When adults are talking, let the child understand that it is a good child to do his own thing quietly, and that walking back and forth and interjecting casually is disrespectful to the guest.

When the guests leave, parents can lead their children to see off the guests, and parents can say to their children: "Say goodbye to XX and come back when you are free!" "Even if a parent teaches a child to say it, it will make the guest feel happy when it comes out of the child's mouth. After such exposure to the ears and eyes, the child will definitely become a polite little master.

6. Guest etiquette

Parents should make an appointment in advance and arrive on time before the New Year's greetings. Knock gently on the door before coming to the New Year's family, if the doorbell is only once to be ringed. When you enter the door, put your shoes neatly in order. Say "thank you" when you receive hospitality

Before going out, tell your child that you can't eat all the delicious things by yourself, but leave them for others." Everybody likes good kids who can share. ”

Some children are very introverted and timid, and are reluctant to come into contact with people. At this time, you can let him bring his favorite toys, food that he is used to eating, etc., one or two familiar things to meet his inner needs, so that the child's heart has a sense of security!

Parents are role models for their children. Good manners have a direct and profound impact on children, as children imitate their parents' every move. "Teaching by example is better than words", if you want your child to be a polite and nurturing person, parents need to set a good example first!
