4.0 out of 5 stars A fun way to learn, June 27, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Elmo's Good Manners Game (Sesame Street) (Board book)

Elmo's Good Manners Game is a great way to teach toddlers (especially Elmo fans!) common manners, such as saying please and thank you.

With colorful illustrations, Elmo helps teach Cookie Monster how to ask for a cookie nicely; Bert to greet someone politely; the monsters how to excuse themselves from the table; Big Bird how to share and Herry how to apologize.

It's a simple way to (hopefully) help ingrain good habits into little reader's minds!

5.0 out of 5 stars I love it and my son does too!, February 17, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Elmo's Good Manners Game (Sesame Street) (Board book)

This book is wonderful. Not only did it motivate my 2 year old to learn the words please and thank you, he seems to have learned alot more with his Sesame Street pals here. The picures are so vivid and life like (or should I say character like :>)we've used this book to identify his pals, learn body parts (where is Cookie Monsters eyes...) and learn colors. Great book at an amazingly low price!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gimmie Cookie Please!, March 23, 2004

This review is from: Elmo's Good Manners Game (Sesame Street) (Board book)

This book is my son's favorite bedtime book, as it has been for over a year now. This book has been instrumental in creating a good foundation of manners for my son. We also use this book to reinforce sign language for "Please" and "Thank You."

Concerning the language used: If one reads Cookie Monster's request in the Cookie Monster voice, then children recognize the difference between human language and monster language.

I highly suggest this book. It is a fast read with great results!
