Do your kids send Thank You notes/cards?

Good for you. Yes children should be taught and encouraged to send thank you notes. By allowing them to take part in the activity and making it fun you are building a solid foundation for future behavior. A lot of parents do not take the time to envolve the children in such activities. Thus, they grow up either expecting someone else to do it for them or not doing it at all.

i don't have kids, but my mother had my sister and i color and create thank you cards that she addressed to whomever gave us something, a habit i still keep. my sister had her 3 kids make thank you cards. i do not buy thank you cards, as they are pricy on my almost nonexistant budget. i can make a very competent card either with or with out a computer. having kids make cards is a good education in manners.
