Irvine: Life Skills American-Dining Etiquette
At The Etiquette Factory, we go beyond teaching surface-level behaviors, we focus on building strong character and lifelong social skills. Children don’t just learn what to do, they learn why it matters. When a child understands how their actions impact others, manners become authentic, not forced.

Our Life Skills: American Dining Etiquette class is an exciting 2 hour class, focused on the American Style of Dining.

Your child will learn the basics of American Style of Dining in fun and interactive ways.
Through discussion, role play, games, and fun competitions, your child will learn lessons including:
1. Proper Place Setting
2. Proper use of Table Linens
3. Napkin Folding Options
4. Roll Play of a complete dining experience

This class is perfect right before the holidays or special events and will include 2 hours of instruction and the Etiquette Factory
"Set-Right" Placemat for your child to take home.
This is one of our most enjoyed classes, by both parents and students who enroll in our programs.

IMPORTANT! Due to the number of food allergies and sensitivities in our community, real food will not be used.
We will role play instead, using props, and will still continue to be able to practice all dining etiquette rules and procedures such as cutting, passing food, etc.

Max number of children per class is 12.

$5 Supply Fee due at first class.
Includes placemat to take home.

Class Presented by
Linda Richardson
Hello! My name is Linda Richardson and I’m very excited to teach etiquette skills to your child.
I have a bachelor’s degree in Communications and two adult children of my own. I’ve enjoyed working with kids most of my adult life, whether in the classroom as Room Mom, PTA board member running programs for the kids, as a Scout Leader or as a Team Mom. Now that mine are grown, I’m excited to join the team at The Etiquette Factory. We define manners as helping those around you feel valued. It’s my goal to help each child gain the self-confidence to navigate life in a meaningful way that includes showing respect for themselves and others and developing meaningful friendships.
