The three-session course for ages 6-10 focuses on setting the table, using utensils, and mastering table manners. Both courses provide an age-appropriate and enjoyable experience, reinforced by a dedicated student workbook. As a rewarding conclusion, participants receive a Certificate, a valuable asset for future resumes. Prepare your child or teen for a lifetime of confidence and success at any dining table.
