Summary: Waste of money
Comment: My poor kids had to sit through this video. I sat there watching it and it was soooo boring. This lady just sat there and talked and talked. It didn't catch my kids attention. No fun anecdote or symbols to help them out. I was very displeased. My husband was even asking what was I thinking when I bought this video. If I only knew I would have never purchased it. Don't waste your money or your time. It just bores you about formal dining and so outdated.

Summary: Developmentally Appropriate!!!
Comment: As a child development teacher, I am constantly looking to better the children under my tutelage (socially, physically, emotionally, and cognitively). This video encourages all aspects of a child's growth and I would recommend it to any parent. It can be made practical enough for everyday use and comfy enough for a child's formal use. The instructions are paced well with clear visual aids for the children to comprehend. WISH MARJABELLE YOUNG STEWART WOULD MAKE MORE MANNERS VIDEOS(ex: Introductions, Proper sitting and standing postures, Phone manners, Conversational Manners etc.)

Summary: Not for normal people
Comment: I thought my 2 and 4 year old sons could learn a few things about table manners by watching this video. It turns out that this video is only about eating in extremely formal situations. It tells which of your 5 forks to use first and how sorbet is used to cleanse your pallet between courses. Good if you are eating with the president, not good for the average family who would like to improve kids' manners.

Summary: Very Well Done
Comment: This video is first-class and extremely well done. My nieces and nephews loved it and remembered what was taught. Some other etiquette videos I have seen appear to be glorified home videos - not this one! Marjabelle Stewart is very gracious and knowledgeable. I recommend it.

Summary: This is excellent for teaching children table manners.
Comment: We used this at a girls club meeting. The girls loved it. It covers so much material and is done in a way that is informative as well as entertaining for the viewer. I would recommend it to anyone- children or adults.
