Avery's Awesome House Rules!
Welcome to my home, Avery! Get ready for an awesome summer vacation! These aren't just a bunch of super strict rules, but more like a cool guide to make sure we all have a blast and learn some useful stuff along the way. Let's make our time together unforgettable!
Screen Time Fun – With Limits!
Screen Time Smart!
  • You get 1.5 hours of screen time each day.
  • No screens during meals or 30 mins before bed (gotta let your brain chill!).
  • Pick shows, games, or apps that are good for your brain and fun!
Remember, there's a whole world of awesome stuff out there beyond screens! Make sure you balance your tech time with real-life adventures.
Offline is prime time for new discoveries – what will you create or explore today?
Keep Your Space Epic!
Finished? Put It Away!
When you're done with gaming gear, books, or sports equipment, put them back in their spot before starting something new. Less clutter means easier finds next time!
Make Your Bed: Level Up Your Day
Start each day by making your bed. It's a quick win that makes your room feel instantly better and sets a good tone for everything else.
Stay Ready for Anything
Keeping your space tidy means you're always prepped for a study session, chilling with friends, or just finding that one thing you need without a scavenger hunt. Your space, your comfort!
Meal & Kitchen Crew Rules
1
Family Mealtime
Breakfast and dinner are when we all eat together. It's a great time to share our day, try different foods, and just hang out as a family.
2
Lunch Choices
Lunch is usually your call. Pick something healthy that you like – think sandwiches, salads, or leftovers. Just make sure it's a balanced meal!
3
Kitchen Helper
We all pitch in to keep the kitchen running smoothly. That means helping set the table, lending a hand with meal prep, and clearing your dishes after we eat.
Remember: This isn't a restaurant with custom orders – we're a team, and meals are a time for us to connect and enjoy food together!
Bedtime & Bright Smiles
Getting enough sleep and keeping your smile bright are super important for a great day, every day!
1
Morning Boost: Brush Up!
Start your day fresh by brushing your teeth for 2 full minutes after breakfast. It wakes you up and keeps those pearly whites healthy!
2
Evening Wind-Down
Get ready for bed: shower, change into PJs, brush those teeth again for 2 minutes, then grab a book or listen to some quiet music. It helps you relax and get ready for sleep.
3
Lights Out: 8:30 PM
Your body needs a full night's sleep to recharge! Hitting the hay by 8:30 PM means you'll wake up feeling energized and ready to crush school, sports, or whatever awesome plans you have for tomorrow!
Teamwork Makes the Dream Work!
Shared Responsibilities
Our home runs smoothly when everyone contributes. Pitching in with chores, big or small, helps us all have more free time and less stress!
Treat Others with Respect
Always use kind words and actions with family, friends, and guests. Good communication and listening skills are key to getting along and building strong relationships.
Rules Create Freedom
When we all follow our family guidelines, it builds trust and creates more opportunities for fun things like late nights, cool outings, and extra privileges!
Level Up: Your Rewards!
