Manners and More for Girls

By Gail Reed and Carrie Brooks

If you want little girls to grow into well-mannered young ladies, then there are certain skills you need to teach them.

This illustrated guide makes learning those skills fun. Use it to teach the girls in your life how to:

make introductions and greet others with confidence;

avoid the drama in life by maintaining a positive attitude;

dress with respect and wear age-appropriate clothing; and

accept responsibility for thoughts and actions.

Girls will also learn how to make choices that lay the foundation for a bright future, demonstrate good sportsmanship, and exhibit class in everything they do.

Being a lady means more than saying please and thank youit also means being considerate, tolerant, and respectful of others. It means sitting up straight, keeping your knees together, or sitting tall with your legs gently crossed at the knee or ankleand many other important lessons as well.

Help little girls become extraordinary young ladies with the life lessons in Manners and More for Girls.
