Children as well as adults should learn how to properly drink from a cup or glass. Never put the entire hand around a glass and then drink.
The glass should be held in the fingers with all four fingers and thumb firmly on the glass.
Sit tall and lift the glass to the mouth, never bend over with the head down. Lips are placed on the edge of the glass and a small sip is taken.
The same drinking manners work for small kids, teens and adults. Also remember, no slurping or drinking with food in the mouth.
Toddlers and preschoolers should practice the same way as older children. It will become "second nature" and remembered always.
Good table manners need to be practiced daily whether at home, school or in a restaurant. Mom and Dads....be consistent!
