Please and Thank You by Barney and Friends
January 4th, 2010
There are lots of things
We can do to be nice,
Sometimes they’re hard to remember.
But there are two little things
You should never forget,
From January through December.
He’s talking ’bout please and thank you,
They’re called the magic words,
If you want nice things to happen,
They’re the words that should be heard,
Remember please and thank you,
‘Cause they’re the magic words.
(From the Please and Thank You song)
.
Manners are such an important factor in life that is often overlooked. I think we should be teaching our children from a very early age to be kind, considerate and respectful of one another. This is done through manners and Please and Thank You can go a long way when needed.
Preschoolers learn the importance of being kind and courteous to others when BarneyTM: Please & Thank You debuts on DVD January 5, 2010 from Lionsgate and HIT Entertainment. Trusted by moms and adored by children, Barney displays sharing, caring, imagining, dancing and learning on television, online and through live events, home entertainment and publishing.

When Baby Bop forgets to say “please” and “thank you,” Barney realizes it’s time for a lesson on how magic words can make other people feel good inside. As Baby Bop daydreams about a world without good manners she realizes that being polite is not only important but it’s easy to do after all. The DVD features 19 favorite Barney songs including, “Please & Thank You,” “Being Together,” “Clean Up” and more.
Episodes include:
· Magic Words
· Tea-riffic Manners
