Have you thought about organizing a school assembly that teaches manners? I had the pleasure of teaching over 480 children at an elementary school in New Jersey. The school created a theme which was called “Conscious Conduct”. For two years, the focus for all students was appropriate behavior. Teaching manners was a perfect fit for them.
Our world today is changing rapidly, and as casual as we have become in our lives, good manners are still essential. Technology has liberated us in so many ways, but teaching manners to children and teens remains crucial to our success as individuals and as a society.
Approximately 100 children attended each session along with their teachers. The students were exceptionally well behaved and so very engaged. I was impressed!
Manners To Go is an unpretentious program to help children, parents and educators navigate through the social skills of life. Lisa Richey’s mission is to provide a variety of activities to teach the life skills needed to promote the growth of well-rounded adults who are able to interact in any situation.

Yesterday, I had a conversation with a potential licensee and she asked great questions not only about the training but details about the curriculum and the modules that are presented during our certification.
First, I would like to share with you our philosophy.A manners program does not have to be stuffy, judgmental, or about a long list of rules….do’s, and don’t’s.Our approach is one of self-confidence and self-interest.We use our good manners because of how it makes us feel on the inside.It is also about putting the other person at ease.
Manners To Go builds confidence.Children respond to our concept immediately. Many do not even know they are learning manners as our licensees are teaching the curriculum.
