REISTERSTOWN, Md., Nov. 28, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Galiant Enterprises, LLC announces that they have created a unique line of T-shirts called Use Your Manners that are designed to encourage parents to talk to their children about good manners and family values. In an age where the use of common courtesies seems to be at an all-time low, the Use Your Manners T-shirts bring these important behaviors to the forefront, literally, as reminder messages are printed on the front of every shirt.
"The Treasure Chest of Magic Words" is the primary T-shirt in the Use Your Manners T-shirt series. It shows an open treasure chest containing 15 special words, words that when used create a special kind of magic; words such as please, thank you, excuse me, share, listen, patriotic and courage. Each word is also featured on a separate T-shirt that is brought to life by the Stickie friends. The Stickie friends are likable stick figures that have been developed to make using your manners the popular thing to do.
"With the help of the Stickie friends parents get to benefit from non-verbal reinforcement of these important words every time their child wears a Use Your Manners shirt," states Susan Brower, President of Galiant Enterprises. "On the other hand, parents can choose to talk about the message on each T-shirt. Take the Courage T-shirt for example, it depicts a young girl battling cancer, but she is not alone in her fight. She has the support of her friends and family. 100% of the profits from that shirt will be donated to The Children's Cancer Foundation, which further opens up an opportunity for parents to talk about giving to help others."
A number of polls and surveys conducted in recent years show that adult family members are by far the most influential in terms of teaching good manners to children. Parents and experts agree that teaching children good manners should start at an early age. Further surveys indicate that when children grow up without learning basic courtesies they are less successful as adults in personal relationships, work environments, and social settings.
Use Your Manners T-shirts can be a great topic of conversation among family members and a wonderful way to remind children about how important good manners and good family values are. Teach your children good manners and you'll be giving them skills that will last a lifetime.
