Teaching children how to greet someone
Humans are social creatures and how we greet people will have a big effect on how the other person reacts and how we are treated ourselves, especially when we greet people for the very first time. When we greet someone warmly and politely, this makes the other person feel comfortable and welcome. We want to teach our children to learn how to greet someone well.
