Every meal may be a chance for children to practice good table manners. Little children may learn how to be courteous and exhibit table manners by using their utensils properly and waiting until everyone has been served. Montessori Kid’s Land Academy, a trusted preschool and infant center in Redlands, California, helps practice kids how to learn table manners in an encouraging and fun way.

The educators and staff in our preschool in California are consistent with teaching children. We teach children that dining should not begin until everyone has been seated and served because it can be impolite to begin eating before everyone has been seated. Food is intended to be shared.

Two basic laws of excellent table manners are chewing with your mouth closed and not talking when your mouth is full. If children forget, the educators, carers, and staff in our infant center will gently remind them.

Children in our Montessori Preschool are discouraged from eating with their hands, with a few exceptions, such as pizza, and hamburgers, especially if they have progressed beyond finger foods. We show them how to correctly handle their fork.

The best thing is children get to learn all this in fun and loving environments, such as our Montessori Infant and Preschool Education in Redlands, California. To enroll your little ones, please schedule an appointment with us.
