Hi Elle! Im going to show this to my two older kids! Lord knows they need it 😁 LOL The kiddos were so adorable 😊 Great video 😊 Happy Early Thanksgiving! I 💖WUM!
im a senior in high school who should be working on my college apps but am binge watching how to eat properly...cuz im totally gonna need that in college and is way more important than writing my supplements
Don't forget the number one rule of etiquette, which is making the people around you feel comfortable. That is where all the other rules of etiquette stem from.
27 years old and still use my fingers for some food that isn't considered "finger food" and slurp my spaghetti, and have my elbows on the table from time to time. Eating isn't meant to be fancy, it's meant to feel your body with the nutrients it needs to function. As long as my 3 kiddos are behaving, ie not throwing their food or screaming at each other, then eat how ever you feel comfortable.
I feel as if working on general manners is good enough. I understand these are important to learn in life but not at such a young age. I would be shocked if anyone were to be offended that a 5 year old doesn't know the differences between fork usage
I taught my three-year-old how to use a fork, how to say "may I be excused?" Also she knows how to put her napkin on her lap. Kids are capable of more than you think if you have high expectations and are consistent
lilahtov wasn’t saying they aren’t capable and those are the general manners I was talking about. I still would never expect a young child to know how to perfectly twirl spaghetti or that there’s typically five different kinds of silverware when most homes only use the standard three. Even as an adult I rarely see a setting In which all five have been placed in front of me. My point wasn’t that they aren’t capable my point is that they are children.
WhatsUpMoms that’s great. My children have good table manners, that they have learned as they go. Which is I’m pretty sure what you all had in mind. I think as this video has more of a lesson feel that is why some people perhaps reacted that it’s too much. It would be very hard to show in a video little reminders being shown to the children now and then over time though. You’d be there for years to show that, wouldn’t you? So makes total sense to me to show it as you have.x
My mom thought me how to use a fork and a knife, but it was the American way, so I would put down the knife and switch the fork to my right. It was more than my in-laws know. They nicknamed me "La Duquesa" (Dutchess) just because I used a knife and fork on my pancakes... They mocked me, but I knew it was important to keep with it. So Thanks to google and youtube, I studied table etiquette and I'm teaching it to the kids with fancy dinners :)
Hi, in Germany it is pretty important to sit straight at the table. Watching the video I could just see how bent the lady was sitting...haha. The kids are so well behaved.
The kids are so big now, I watch these cause I want to be just the perfect mum for my kids, It takes time to realise that the people in your life will not ever not be there for no reason, A mum’s important, that’s why I want to be the perfect one!
I learned that at a very young age as well, it was pretty boring then but it stuck with me and now I wouldn't imagine doing things differently. We have different manners in France but it's generally the same thing. We always keep the fork in our left hand, never switch. Some of the comments are a bit harsh tbh.
I think this is great! I remember learning this at that age on a Girl Scout field trip. Yeah of course sometimes I slurp my soup and use my hands but I have the ability to read a situation so I don’t feel out of place in different eating environments. This is great WUM! Don’t let other people get to you. These are life skills you’re teaching your kids.
Do you really switch the fork back into your right hand? Could this be an American Thing? I am from Europe and keep the knife in my right hand - so the fork is always in my left hand. Love this video, it‘s never too early to learn some etiquette. Sometimes I put my elbow on the table and my 3 year old tells me not to 😂
I think it's important for people of all ages to learn proper table etiquette. I never learnt this when I was young but eventually later. It's very helpful. Also etiquette rules vary tremendously. For example here in Germany it's rude to not have your hands showing at the table i.e. don't have them in your lap. Whereas in the US, that would be ok. Love the video!
My children learned very early on that the fork is always held in your left hand and the knife in your right. A knife must never be left on the plate while using your fork and when you are finished eating the knife and fork are put together on the plate not on the table.
But if you aren't left-handed, why would you always hold your fork in your left hand? 🤔 It seems like that would be much more awkward and difficult, especially for a child, to have to eat with their non-dominant hand. 🤷🙁
@@shandyng4150 perhaps she is from Europe 🤷 I wasn't saying people should switch utensils from one hand to the other...what I was trying to say is that it seems it would be easier for a right-handed person (especially a child) to hold their fork in their right hand and knife in their left, no switching required. I am left-handed, so I naturally hold my eating utensil with my left hand and use a knife with my right; my children are all right-handed, however, and it is very awkward/clumsy for them to try to use their left hand to eat with 🤷
lilannegirl03 it’s because cutting is the harder activity and that’s the one you want done by your dominant hand. So you hold the fork in your non-dominant hand because it only goes from plate to mouth, but your dominant hand does the work or cutting and manoeuvring food onto your fork. For right handed people, the fork goes in their left and the knife in the right; for left handed individuals it would be the opposite. However, when people are seated closely together as is custom in many royal settings and other fancy dinner parties, it’s easiest when everyone holds their utensils in the same way. That way, you aren’t elbowing the person next you when you’re cutting with your right and they’re eating with their left.
It’s crazy to me that there’s tons of adult table etiquette videos but non for children. Most adults know table etiquette. This was literally the only kids video so thank you!
She is an amazing teacher. I am in home economics college and although in our society we don't need these manners unless in big restaurant it was great to learn to eat on dining table with proper etiquettes.
Great video, it's weird though, in England we always keep the fork in our left hand and knife in the right (or the opposite if you are left handed) so when you are cutting your food you do not need to swap back. I think we use a knife a lot more here too as we push our food with the knife onto the back of our fork so you are always using both. It's interesting how different countries do different things xxx
:-) this reminded me of the limitations of ‘etiquette’ while there was nothing wrong with any of that some of it was distinctly different to the manners/etiquette that I was taught and will pass on to my daughters
Miss Izgar: How did the dodgers do last night Mathew: *is eating broccoli and holds up one picture* Miss Izgar: Perfect, now when you are done chewing you can talk to me *looks at Mathew* Mathew: *insted of talking, takes another bite* Me: 😂😂😂
Thank you. Its really helpful as due to some unavoidable reasons my 5yrs old daughter skipped her summer camp and this video helped me alot to teach her proper etiquettes.
Wow Americans like to make cutting chicken hard. In Europe we use a fork in left hand and knife in right hand and don’t swap about, that’s making it complicated for children and more likely to fail and knock over food and drink doing it!
While cutting the chicken the fork was almost held like a club, with the tine end extending toward the outside instead of the thumb side. I'm seeing that more and more, and it just looks so Neanderthal and awkward. I keep waiting for the cut piece of meat to go flying.
My twins are 7 years old. We started with table manners when they were 2 years old. My wife and I would go to restaurants quite frequently. We trained our kids to sit still and not make any noise. If they did. Which toddlers do. I would take them outside till they stopped. I missed a few meals because of tantrums. By the age of 3 my kids could go to nice restaurants and sit still. So many parents would tell us they have never seen kids act so good. I decided years before I had kids. They will never yell or run around in restaurants or public places. I spent countless times shushing my kids so much they would give up misbehaving. You have to start your kids young.
Just do it! She knows what she is talking about. Don't tell to eat ice cream!!! ice cream should only be consumed by taste only not by large consumption!!! She is reigh on how to prepare the pssta with the spoon.
Thank you so much for this! I can't wait to share it with my children. We spend a lot of time at the table in our home and it's nice to see others share in the value of good etiquette while eating.
I feel like learning etiquette is just being polite and making everyone around you feel at ease - my mum was a stickler for manners and it’s really paid off. I find it very strange watching this though, as in the UK we always have our knife in our dominant hand and our fork in our other hand.
When me and my family eat we literally don’t care if you put your elbows on the table, we just use one spoon and one fork, it’s fine if we lean over to eat, you can have as much spaghetti on your fork as you want...so uhh ya lol
With my 2 (23 & 13) we always ate at the table since they came home from the hospital. We used dinner time to talk about our days, no matter what time we actually sat down to eat. They stayed at the table until everyone was done eating, elbows on the table never bothered me so I never enforced that one. We also exposed them to dinner with my parents once a week, and with that, it was like eating in a restaurant no matter if it was at their house or an actual restaurant. There if the kids got antsy, and my son was all boy mixed with ADHD, very verbal and super smart a natural lawyer with his how abouts at 2. They were removed, to the spare bedroom or the car until they settled down. To learn that it's not nice or fair to disturb the people around them. They liked talking so much this only happened once and a while, I also brought backpacks with things that would occupy them while we waited for the food - and their stuff came at the same time as everyone elses. I started really strick with how I wanted them to behave so that they knew what I expected from an early age. Also no electronics at the table, and they were not allowed to use any table or counter as a jungle gym but to treat them for what they were tables and counters. That was how I was raised as an only child by my parents and for us it works. Also once they proved that they knew what to do when they were say 6 and 15 I didn't have to keep up with how to behave because they got it. So now we all eat at different times, sometimes even different meals. But that once a week meal with grandma and grandpa is as it always way.
I haven’t use any of the etiquette tips for the 12 years I’ve been ALivE... I always put my elbows on the table, eat bonfire everyone is sitting and has been served, and I ALWAYS slurp soup...... is that bad????????
Hi, I am very impressed with this video! I have 2 kids who do not have any dining etiquette :( I am going to get them to watch & learn :) Really thanks for sharing. I am from Asia.
I grew up in Germany and I learned to not ever put down my knife during eating, so you eat with the fork in your left hand pretty much the whole meal. You push food with the knife onto the fork during the whole meal and don't chase it across the plate and create shish kebab when doing that or push it on the fork with your finger. Of course I also had to put newspaper between my elbows and torso and have it not fall down while eating and learned that you should never move your mouth to your food, but your food to your mouth. I learned all of this in daycare- age 2-5. We always used knives and nobody got hurt. Does every child in Germany learn all this? No. Do i use any of this on a regular basis? No. But I am comfortable eating in fancy places for work and can use it when appropriate. I've lived in the states for 9 years and find it absolutely shocking how many chew with their mouth open, talk while chewing and always push their food on their fork with their fingers. I love eating pizza and burgers with my hands, have dinners on the living room floor and am by no means a snob or manners-queen, but there are some courtesies that I think are just worth learning and knowing about from a young age.
Awesome!!!!! Future episode ideas: homework etiquette, babysitter etiquette, movie theater etiquette, restaurant etiquette. I am showing this video to my 7 yo tonight so we can practice- thank you!!!!
For the life of me I cannot use my fork in my right hand 😂 and although I know the rules of the table, I was also taught as long as you're not disturbing others, eat how you're comfortable.

Agreed!!
Nothing wrong with eating politely. Fingers on food that should be eaten with a fork? That’s a hard no. Only when you are by yourself.
Yep! food is fuel!!

You don’t switch back. Just make sure you don’t turn the fork over. If it’s in your left hand it’s tines down.
Exactly what I was going to say 😆😂
I’m Chinese and we use chopsticks and lift the bowls when we eat
Edit: Thx for the likes #chinesesquad
Etiquette is a cultural thing, some is shared in more places, some isn't. You're not wrong, you're just different :)

Isn't it also pretty common to not switch the fork from hand to hand here or is just me who doesn't do that?
It’s not polite to cut the whole meat first and then switch the fork here in Germany.
I think the etiquette around cutting food changes depending on European etiquette vs American etiquette
Yes which is one of the reasons it’s more important to stress thoughtfulness and consideration over the rules of etiquette
@@planningkitten Yes, but the American style is different.
The kids are so big now, I watch these cause I want to be just the perfect mum for my kids,
It takes time to realise that the people in your life will not ever not be there for no reason,

I love how they took the class so seriously they even had green soup.🤣🤣

We don't need a small fork. We eat salad by hand. It is a source of hygiene
Love India
Looks like those kids already had awesome manners. Good job, parents!

OMG WHEN SHE SCRAPED THE FORK ON THE SPOON!!!
Who noticed Matthew sitting criss cross applesauce the whole time
I grew up in Germany and I learned to not ever put down my knife during eating, so you eat with the fork in your left hand pretty much the whole meal. You push food with the knife onto the fork during the whole meal and don't chase it across the plate and create shish kebab when doing that or push it on the fork with your finger. Of course I also had to put newspaper between my elbows and torso and have it not fall down while eating and learned that you should never move your mouth to your food, but your food to your mouth. I learned all of this in daycare- age 2-5. We always used knives and nobody got hurt. Does every child in Germany learn all this? No. Do i use any of this on a regular basis? No. But I am comfortable eating in fancy places for work and can use it when appropriate. I've lived in the states for 9 years and find it absolutely shocking how many chew with their mouth open, talk while chewing and always push their food on their fork with their fingers. I love eating pizza and burgers with my hands, have dinners on the living room floor and am by no means a snob or manners-queen, but there are some courtesies that I think are just worth learning and knowing about from a young age.
Awesome!!!!! Future episode ideas: homework etiquette, babysitter etiquette, movie theater etiquette, restaurant etiquette. I am showing this video to my 7 yo tonight so we can practice- thank you!!!!
Ava Howson same tho I don’t think I ever learned this but as I was growing up I just found it naturally

For the life of me I cannot use my fork in my right hand 😂 and although I know the rules of the table, I was also taught as long as you're not disturbing others, eat how you're comfortable.
i have a one year old this helped so much
