It’s the end of the month of December, and by next year mom will finally get her new CPU. The thought of having a new CPU makes me more excited. You may ask why. Well, mom had good news for me yesterday. She said that she’ll be teaching me to play the mac games. Not just that, she will also teach me on how to Download Games that I can play anytime. All these game downloads will definitely make my new year filled with fun and excitement.

Teaching Kids How to Eat...
- Bread and butter. Place a small slice of butter on your bread plate. Break off a bite-size piece of bread, butter it with your butter knife, replace the knife across your bread plate and enjoy your morsel of bread.
- Soup. Dip your soup spoon away from you and into the opposite side of the bowl. Tipping your bowl to get every drop of soup is usually not okay, nor is wiping your bowl clean with a piece of bread.
- Salad. Salads should already be in bite-size pieces, but if you're faced with, say, a huge piece of lettuce, it's okay to cut it with your knife and fork.
- Food that has to be cut. With your fork in your left hand and your knife in your right, cut off one bite-size piece at a time. Depending upon your family's custom, you can either change your fork back to the right hand to eat, or eat with the fork in your left hand and your knife in your right.
- Finger food. This is a tough one. If you're at a picnic and you're eating messy ribs, you might be tempted to lick your fingers (and you can probably get away with it then). In a more formal setting, finger food might come as bite-size pieces you can pick up with a fork or appetizer pick.

Kids' Guide to Table Manners
Basic Training
It's never too early or too late to learn the basics of "company manners," and just like learning any skill, practice makes perfect. Here are eight easy ways to exercise your good table manners:
* Wait for the cue to sit down. Unfold your napkin, place it over your lap, but don't pick up your fork just yet.
* Watch and wait. When a parent or the host picks up a fork, that's your green light to do the same.
* If you're eating "family style" and sharing food from serving dishes, pass them from left to right. Take only as much as you will finish, then pass the dish to the person on your right.
* Sit up straight and bring the food to your mouth instead of hunching down over your plate. You are not your dog.
* Speaking of bringing food to your mouth, use your utensils unless everyone is eating finger food. Note: you can eat pizza and still use good manners.
* Chew with your mouth closed; talk with your mouth empty. And if you want to lick your lips, dab them with your napkin instead.
* Ask your family how their day was and share something from your own day; eating in grim silence isn't any fun and making conversation is essential to good table manners.
* Are you finished? Resist the temptation to push your plate away. Place your knife and fork side by side on your plate with the handles pointing right. Straighten your napkin and leave it on the table, near the left side of your plate. Some parents might let you leave the table early, but you should ask permission first.
Know Your Way Around
Which fork do I use? Is that my bread plate? Are you drinking out of my glass? Here's how to face the most complicated place setting with confidence.
* More than one fork? Start from the outside and work your way in. The smallest fork on the left side of your plate is usually for appetizers or salad. If you're having soup, you might find a large spoon on the right side of your plate. If you're having bread, your bread knife will be placed on your bread plate.
* Your bread plate is above and to the left side of your dinner plate.
* Your glassware is above and to the right side of your dinner plate.
* Sometimes a dessert spoon or fork might be placed above your dinner plate.
Social Graces
How to behave like a civilized human being.
* Say please and thank you.
* Try a little of everything you're served, even if you suspect you won't like it. You might be pleasantly surprised. And if you really don't like it, just don’t say anything hurtful.
* Is your family hosting a party? Ask how you can help. Maybe you can take coats or serve hors d'oeuvres.
* Are you dining out? Ask your parents if you can order for yourself. (Hint: don't point at the menu when you order.)
* Do you need to use the restroom? Ask your parent quietly.
* Did you accidentally burp? It could happen. Say "excuse me" and hold back the giggling.
* Are you going to sneeze? Turn your head completely away from the table and cover your mouth with your napkin.
* Here's one even grown-ups forget: if you're a dinner guest, send a short thank-you note the next day.
