Please and Thank You

Words & Music by Phil Parker
© 1992 Shimbaree Music (ASCAP)


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.

Use 'em in the morning, at noon, and night,
'Cause it's a great way to be polite!
Please and thank you,
They're the magic words.

We're 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.
Use 'em in the morning, at noon, and night,
'Cause it's a great way to be polite!

Please and thank you,
They're the magic words.

［ The Story of the Song ］
We all need good health, happy families, and friends. Good manners come from respecting other people. Lessons about excellent manners are the most important lessons that should be taught by wise parents and teachers.
Adult behavior in their homes and schools is what children are always observing. Children imitate what they see. If you want a polite child who will always show proper respect for his or her parents, then you must demonstrate respect for your own parents and other people.
［歌里的故事］
　　我们都需要健康的身体，幸福的家庭和好朋友。礼貌来自于尊重别人。明智的父母和教师应该教孩子讲礼貌，这是最重要的课程。
　　孩子经常观察成人在家里和学校的一言一行。他们看见什么就模仿什么。如果你希望有一个尊重父母有礼貌的孩子，那么，你就必须做出好榜样，尊重你自己的父母和其他人。

Say Please & Thank You: Child Behavior Challenge
Hello! Nanny Stella here, reporting for duty! If you've watched any episodes of Nanny 911, you know that we constantly deal with ill-mannered children and the parents who cater to them. So I'm here to nip that in the bud with you right now!
There's no way around it: Politeness counts! For me, manners and empathy are part of the code of conduct for living in our world that we as parents must teach and our children must learn. Raising well-mannered children should be our number-one priority as parents. Manners are the basics of learning the difference between right and wrong. Teaching your children what behavior you expect from them is a daily parenting process—part of what can ensure that our world is going to be blessed with caring, polite, respectful kids instead of those who just don't care about anything or anybody but themselves. Today, we can cover the basics, with those three magic words.
Your challenge: Say Please and Thank You
Here are the Nanny's Tips for saying please and thank you:

• Show by example. This is an exercise for you, as well as your kids! So say please and thank you for every little thing you can think of today. If your child hands you her bottle, say, "Thank you!" If are asking something of your partner, don't forget to add a please at the end. Setting the tone of respect and politeness in the home is where it all starts. Do as I say, not as I do does not apply here!
• Praise the pleases. Let your children know how happy it makes you when they are being kind and responsible. Praise your children when they use the words please and thank-you today.
• Be a broken record. Keep on reminding your kids throughout the day to say please and thank you. If they ask for a glass of milk, wait for the magic word. If they try to leave the dinner table, call them back and ask them to ask you to PLEASE to be excused. Write them into your House Rules.

So to repeat: Say please and thank you everyday. Praise your children liberally when they're polite. Correct them when they're not. Give constant reminders to say please and thank you.

Happy Pleasing & Thanking!
