EATING ETIQUETTES FOR CHILDREN

Introduction

The most effective time to address eating etiquette is probably during eating.

However, it is good to review the etiquettes of eating on a regular basis at other times.

This “guide” is a resource, bi-ithnillah that can be used to teach children the proper etiquette of eating, according to the Sunnah and Quran.

It contains ahadith and ayaat to support the material presented, insha Allah.

In addition, some manners listed are not necessarily from the Quraan and Sunnah, but constitute “good manners” in many cultures, so I have included them as well. These manners are identifiable as they have no proof to accompany them.

Finally, I added in little bits and facts and simple activities to make this guide a little more engaging, insha Allah.
