As a parent, I’ve experienced a variety of playdates, some of which left much to be desired. By “much to be desired,” I mean that my hope of enjoying a moment of peace on my couch was dashed. To ensure future visits are more enjoyable, I’ve established a set of guidelines for kids to follow when they come over to play.

Children, please remember the following:

1. Respect Personal Space: It’s important to give each other space. If someone needs a break, let them have it.
2. Share Toys: Sharing is caring. Please take turns with toys and games to keep the fun going.
3. Use Indoor Voices: While excitement is welcome, please keep the volume at a reasonable level to maintain a peaceful environment.
4. Stay Within Boundaries: Play in designated areas. This will help prevent accidents and keep the house tidy.
5. Ask Before Taking: Always ask permission before using another child’s belongings. This fosters respect and kindness.
6. Clean Up After Play: Once the fun is over, let’s all pitch in to tidy up the area. This is a team effort!
7. Communicate Openly: If someone is upset or has a problem, speak up! It’s essential to communicate feelings.
8. No Rough Play: Physical play can lead to accidents. Let’s keep it safe and enjoyable for everyone.
9. Be Kind: Treat each other with kindness and respect. Remember, we’re all here to have fun together.
10. Enjoy the Moment: Lastly, let’s focus on having a great time! Playdates are about making memories.

By adhering to these guidelines, we can ensure that playdates are enjoyable for everyone involved. Happy playing, and let’s make the most of our time together!
