I will always wear a
helmet when riding a bike,
scooter or skateboard.
I will try to save time
to read for fun.
I promise that
I'll do my best to follow
our household rules
for video games
and internet use.
Resolutions also bring families closer, especially when you decide to set goals
together. Families could plan to do acts of kindness or one charitable thing a month
and brainstorm about what those might be. You could pick up trash in the park or
donate used clothes and toys to a shelter.
another idea is for everyone to make two personal New Year's resolutions and two
collective family resolutions such as, "let's visit grandma more often" or "let's plan
a trip to Disney World."
I will keep my
personal info safe and
not share my name,
home address, school name
or telephone number online.
also, I'll never send a picture
of myself to someone I chat
with on the computer or
phone without asking my
parent if it is okay.

New Year's resolutions

I will tell
an adult about bullying
that I see or hear about
to do what I can to
help keep school safe
for everyone.
the start of a new year is a great time to focus on good habits.
Making New Year's resolutions can be a fun way to do this! Here
are some healthy and positive goal-setting resolution ideas:
I will try to find a physical
activity (like playing tag,
jumping rope, dancing or
riding my bike) or a sport
I like and do it at least
three times a week!
I'll try to be
friendly to kids who
may have a hard time
making friends by
talking with them and
inviting them to
join activities.
Make family
resolutions together
I will try
to talk with
my parent or a
trusted adult when
I have a problem
or feel
stressed.
I will drink water every day
and healthy beverages like
milk with meals. I will keep
soda and fruit drinks
only for special times.
I will wear my seat belt
every time I get in a car.
I'll sit in the back seat and
use a booster seat until I am
tall enough to use a
lap/shoulder seat belt.
