Good Manners

Sherry Jeffers 1991 (Jnf hospital)



Remind your child to always use their manners.
When you pack their lunchbags leave little reminders.
Please and Thank you are not so hard to say.
May I and Can I, trust me it goes a long way.
Teach them to be considerate and careful,
Kind and respectful but never fearful.
Show them that its okay to share,
And when u see them doing it give them a little cheer.
Tell them to always help each other...
Even if its not their sister or brother.
Remind them everyday that God is love,
And every now and then give them a little hug!
