Children’s etiquette training is for kids and teens who want to build confidence, learn respect, and develop social skills that will serve them throughout their lives. With the right foundation, children can feel comfortable in any situation — from the classroom to the dinner table — and grow into kind, capable, and considerate young adults.

We tailor each program to meet the specific goals, ages, and circumstances of the children participating.

Why Children’s Etiquette Training

Good manners never go out of style, and studies show that children who practice strong social skills experience less anxiety, improved self-esteem, and stronger relationships with peers and adults. Learning etiquette gives children the tools to:

  • Show respect at home, school, and in the community

  • Feel confident in social and dining situations

  • Reduce social anxiety in unfamiliar environments

  • Build empathy, kindness, and cooperation

By instilling these skills early, children are better prepared to succeed in school, in friendships, and eventually in the workplace.

Training Programs Include

Each training program is tailored to fit your needs, whether it’s a small group class, private family session, or a large group workshop at a school or camp. Programs may be offered on-site or virtually depending on your preference and time frame.

Tips to Reduce Kids’ Social Anxiety

Two tips are to:

  1. Teach the basics and practice, practice, practice. Teach children as soon as they’re able to talk the basics of good social skills: Look people in the eyes when talking to them, smile, listen, ask questions, say “please” and “thank you”, shake hands, and show respect.

  1. Encourage confident conversation skills. Teach your children how to make polite conversation with adults and with peers in order to make friends and build the relationship. Teach them to ask questions of others, listen, and show interest and empathy and then practice this often. Do not talk for them in social situations or make excuse for them.
