Manners Story Time – Toddler

Opening song

Sign language: please, thank you

Book: Time to Say “Please”! by Mo Willems

Song: “Three Nice Mice”
Three nice mice, three nice mice
See how nice they are, see how nice they are
They’re always polite when they nibble their cheese
They never forget to say thank-you or please
They cover their noses whenever they sneeze
Ah-choo! Ah-choo! Ah-choo!
They’re three nice mice

Song: “Before I Eat My Meals” (Tune: “If You’re Happy and You Know It”)
Oh, before I eat my meals, I wash my hands
Oh, before I eat my meals, I wash my hands
Oh it’s very smart I think – to wash those germs right down the sink
Oh, before I eat my meals, I wash my hands

Oh, before I eat my meals, I pass the food
Oh, before I eat my meals, I pass the food
Oh, it would be very rude, if I didn’t share the food
Oh, before I eat my meals, I pass the food
