With the holidays coming up, lots of people will be having parties. Want to make sure you're a perfect host or guest?Now it's a good time to brush up on your party manners.
When inviting guests to your party, send invitations to their homes instead of passing them out at school. This way, you won't hurt the feelings of classmates you didn't invite.
If people at the party don't know each other, make sure you introduce everyone.
If your guests bring gifts for you, thank each gift-giver as you open his/her present. After the party, be sure to send a hand-written thank-you card to each guest, telling them how much you appreciate their gifts.
When you receive an invitation to a party, be sure to let the host know whether you can come.
Arrive on time. Bring a gift to a birthday party. If it's a holiday party, ask the host if there's anything you can bring. Adults often bring a dessert or a bottle of wine to a party, even when the host tells them that
he/she doesn't need anything. Young people don't have to do this, but it's always polite to ask.
Be friendly to the other guests. Remember to say “Please” and “Thank you!” When you leave, thank the host for the party.
