This is a game to teach children regarding good & bad manners in different social situations. Words related to manners are printed out and put in an envelope. The students play ‘Passing the Parcel’. The child who is left holding the envelope has to answer a few questions regarding the word/phrase which he finds on opening the envelope. (Who will ask the questions?) For example, if the phrase was “No Bullying’’ he may have to answer the following questions. 1. Do you know what is bullying? 2. Have you seen any body bullying? 3. Have you been bullied? 4. Do you think bullying is good manners or bad manners? 5. If at all you know what is bullying, kindly do share when & how it happened. What was your reaction? 6.
