Children's Manners & Tea Etiquette

More than a set of rules, etiquette and manners teach us to respect each other and ourselves. In this course, Professor Sybil Davis will teach children ages 8 through 13 how to navigate some of the complex behaviors that make Southern hospitality world famous. Your young gentleman or lady will learn how to behave politely at a restaurant, how to make a great first impression, and even what to do in case of a spill.

Using a formal tea service as the framework, this course teaches etiquette do’s and don’ts that are sure to make your family mealtimes more enjoyable and give your child a confidence boost! And, of course, class ends with a delightful array of small pastries and finger food.
