Meet & Greet: JP: 4. Forgetting Names - Story

Remembering names and using them at the next social encounter is an excellent way in which to grow a friendship past the introductory stage.  Children are also taught how to apologize for forgetting a name and ask their new friend again.  Whilst it is important to try to remember names, it is normal to forget a name, and appropriate to ask again.  Children are also reminded that their new friends may forget their names and it’s okay if they have to remind their new friend of their name.
