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.

Can you please do an update on Brookes family? We all miss her so much!!
I feel like they are getting prince and princess training.😂😂👑
3:43 [Europe screams internally]
LINA TREE I know. I was like NOPE. WRONG.
I’m American and I also screamed internally. 😂
New Zealand too
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 😆😂
Elbow police should have been called on 1:25
Haha! Good catch!
@@WhatsUpMOMS and at 4:30
And 3:32

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 :)
I’m Vietnamese and I literally do all of thee don’ts and don’t do any of the do’s... if that makes any sense...
I am Chinese and Vietnamese......and French. I do all of these too
I'm Chinese too
Bengalis eat with their hands or use spoons
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.
AHAHHA at least I'm not alone but of course in front of an authority figure I don't do that but I do do that when I'm at home and I'm 11 though.
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!!
This is so important I don't think I learned etiquette as a kid I just figured it out. Also i hope you guys are safe from the wild fires
Same here, even knives and forks, i just watched my moms and her friends eating steak
@@ashie9849 that's funny 😂😂
Ava Howson same tho I don’t think I learned it I think I just found it naturally as I was growing up
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.
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.
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 😂
Katharina Fleck in America where I live we don’t switch it back... it makes it harder...
ikr! i’m european and i’m like i don’t switch back
Same!
all i do is whatever XD
I'm from America and I do that
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.
First, they are all 7! And second, this was so fun for them and gave them confidence!!
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
Sam C they might not always use these rules at this age but it always good to start teaching at this age
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.
“That is a little bit too much “ damn just let the kid eat whatever amount lol
I love how they took the class so seriously they even had green soup.🤣🤣
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 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 any of your friends have their elbows on the table?"
**slowly talkes elbows off the table**
She makes eating so awkward but also it is very helpful😂
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 🤷
@@shandyng4150 I see; thank you for explaining 😊
I always did that but when we had pasta we would not lay the table with a knife just a fork and I would use that in my right hand in from Europe.
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.
Then there’s me eating cereal with a fork😂💀
:-) 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
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.
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!
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
I think that switching hands is pointless -- you can just cut a bit off and eat that.
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.
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.
She didn’t get a cheers at the end I’m DEAD😂😂😂
I really like the dining etiquette uses because it is so much fun while I’m eating.
Never too late.......
(Later)
Mother: Honey! I’m going to teach you dinner table manners!
30 year old: Okay mom....
All the kids are so adorable! I learned some stuff here, too :)
This is awesome! Great way to show (even adults!😉)manners. Excellent job -love it! 💜
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????????
This was a great idea!!! Loved this video! Thank you!
Pressly was great at this Elle is a good mom
early for the first time yayy I have been waiting for this moment for soo long yes so happy
4:32 ELBOW POLICE!
This is so helpful!!
Please more videos like these 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I love how the kids knew the forks and spoons and all I know is their names 😂😂
Heheheheh he said my names Mathew while picking up his gold chain. I’m dying 😂
3:22 man I wish that someone clapped for me when I ate they would never stop though!😂😂
I do not know why I am watching this at the age of 16....
And for some reason I enjoy it!😂
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.
Love you for so long I didn't watch your vids
tasfia Islam what
Awe, glad you are back!!
My first and second grade teacher said " nap on lap" when it was time to eat
You are the best! This makes my life so much more easier
I’m so happy she taught them to eat with their right hand 😊
Thank you so much!
My son has really bad etiquette, so will definitely be using these tips.
Aw what a sweet teacher and cute, cute kids ❤❤❤
ok but who actually sets up the table with 2 different sets of forks and spoons?
Yes another video ❤❤❤ best moms ever
I literally LOVE this channel. Love you Elle
That is so sweet, Luv ya back!!
WhatsUpMoms thanks so much!!!!!
@@WhatsUpMOMS lol
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.
“What do we use the big fork for?” “spaghetti” why is this so me😂
Really nice video and very important. Do more of these etiquette videos.
I love all of your videos 💖
Oo all the kids where so cute Elle love the videos
this is so cute!!
So fun and amazing! Now I’m Heading to a fancy restaurant! 💖👍😋
Hey elle its children's day in india and as this channel includes alot of children so wishing them all a very happy children's day!
Hi I am 9years old can I watch you guys every day over and over
0:57 on my etiquette handout we're never suppose to put it on our chairs but the table
Everybody talking about the vid:
Me: thinking about how plain and cold the food looks..🤣
American kids: May i please be excused?
Balkan kids: Just straight up gets up and puts plate in sink
And then there are these kids who have MUCH better manners than me 😂
I watched this in wellness class in fourth grade! I gotta say I was the only excited kid there to watch this lol!
The adoptee on the bottom right reverted to the ancestral way of eating pasta 😂
These kids knows even more about manners that I do.😅😅😂🤣😂🤣
4:32 ELBOW POILCE lmao they are so cute I dont have the manner lol
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: 😂😂😂
Early!!!! Love you WUM❤️
i was laughing when the girl is holding the pasta :D laughs
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!
This was so cute!
" Don't slurp your soup."
* Me who just slurped my ramen in one minute
kikkiki

Matthew was the only one to finish his food.😂😂
I'm eating mac & cheese on my desk in my messy room & their over there like getting the facnyest meals & nice outfits (btw I'm in my PJS)
It’s cool to see the difference between countries, I’m from England and we do things like hold our knife and fork the other way around as u.
Ava Howson same tho I don’t think I ever learned this but as I was growing up I just found it naturally
“Then you switch back to your right hand”
*screams in British*
This is actually good!
I really like your DIY hacks
Your are my IDOLS 🥰!
This is fabulous! I have a toddler and preschooler manners video coming out soon!

"We dont wanna slurp the bowl"
Me: *slurps ramen*
Excellent explanation to their level,, really it created a impact to teach my kids too like as you taught to them 🙄😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
