I’m going to try a few things differently this year and while we’ve always had rules around the house, I don’t know that we’ve always been good about enforcing them.  And while I don’t want to be a bia all the freaking time, I do think we all could use a little more structure in our lives so… Here’s a list of

HOUSE RULES

for our house for 2020 (and beyond)!

1.  Love More
2. Yell Less
3. Create More
4. Tech Less
5. Be Respectful
6. Pick Up After Ourselves
7. Everyone Help With House Chores
8. No Devices after 7pm*
9. 8:30 Bedtime
10. Bathe Before Bed
11. Homework Before Play
12. Make Good Choices
13. Spend Wisely
14. Help Others
15. Be Thoughtful
16. Read Every Day
17. Hugs All The Time
18. Have Fun
19. Share
20. Be Kind

We did 20 rules for this year.  While I do think it’s a lot, I do think it helps cover everything!   It covers kindness, thoughtfulness, respectfulness, bedtime, and everything!  I’m hoping I can refer back to these rules which are now written up in the office where everyone can see them.

Do you do rules at your house?!  Written ones?  I’m thinking this is a good thing to start doing at the beginning of the year.  We shall see how it goes.  Bedtime has gone well with it being 8 days in… We just have to make sure to get baths and reading in by a certain time to make that happen… which might prove harder as we move into the year!

And I even created a quick printable for you all if you’d like to use it to make your own!  20 for 20… and go!
Here’s to a great year!
