Daily Idea #260: Setting a Proper Table

We are going to back to learning a basic life skill today: Setting a Proper Table. We try to get the kids involved in setting and clearing the table. They know the basics; the plate goes in the middle, the fork goes on the left, the knife and spoon go on the right. Many times it just looks like we all threw stuff at the table and hoped it landed in the right place, but when a table is set properly there is something really beautiful about it. For today’s daily idea we are going to learn the three different ways to set a proper table— basic, casual, and formal. I am attaching pictures of each way to follow.
