I want my siblings and cousins to be very nice people that have manners and loyalty and everything but also know how to have fun and be kids and everything. How can i help teach them to have good manners and loyalty and everything?
Kids are all ages
Right now they are ok but i want them to be real good at it.

Lead by example. That’s the best way to teach kids. If they look up to you and enjoy your company they will pick up these good behaviors. If they are small and asking for something without saying please or thank you encourage it. I remember my grandmother when I was a child when I asked for something and didn’t say please she would always say "what do you say??" and if I didn’t say something she would follow it up with a "say please". If I didn’t say thank-you she would always say "say thank-you". Overtime its just something you get used to. My kids are 2yrs and 3yrs and are both very polite. They are a little excessive with it (i.e. my daughter thanks me for changing her diaper and my son for making him meals), but at least they get the point. I never really pushed them to do it, I just thanked them when they did something for me and said please when I asked something of them. They seen how I used my words and picked it up quick. =)
Well, do they have good manners, nice & loyal to each other but are unfairly mean to you? Unfortunately, many ppl are doing that these days as a distraction technique from things they don’t like about themselves or their own lives….
Oh, you are talking about all of them being younger than you? You did say kids all ages so you just meant all kids…
Then the lady above has a good answer… hopefully, they will take the good example instead of the many other examples out there… like all the "attitudes" of many cartoons & teeny bopper shows out there, etc…
