Here are some New Year resolutions for you
You can start by saying some resolutions which we have indicated
below and then put each one of them into practise.
* I will practice good hygiene. This includes brushing my teeth after
meals, washing my hands after going to the bathroom, covering my nose
and mouth when I sneeze and cough, and keeping my nails clipped and
filed. Proper hygiene is important for good health.
* I will make it a point to eat healthier. I will eat a fruit and
vegetable every day while limiting my sweets. After all, an apple a day
keeps the doctor away. I will also drink more water and milk while
drinking less soda and juice. I will be taking better care of my body by
watching what goes in to it.
* I will be responsible when using the computer. I will not give out
any personal information like my full name, birth date, address, phone
number, or name of the school I currently attend.
I will review Internet safety with my parents and abide by their
rules.
* I will volunteer at my local church or in the neighborhood. I could
give my old clothes and toys to children in need. I could help serve
dinner at a soup kitchen. I could clean the litter off the beaches or
help out at an animal shelter.
* I will keep my bedroom organised and my bed made. I will put my
dirty clothes in the laundry basket and hang my towel up in the
bathroom. When I am done with one toy, I will clean it up before taking
out the next one.
* I will work on being polite and not responding to my parent's
requests with a smart tongue. I will remember my please, thank you, your
welcome, and excuse me's. I will never say curse words or use the Lord's
name in vain. I will show respect for my elders with my words.
* I will do my best in school. I will hand in my homework on time and
not wait until the night before my science fair project is due to start
working on it. If I need extra help with a subject, I will ask for it or
get a tutor.
* I will be kind to all children. If I see someone who is sad, I will
try to cheer him or her up. If a new kid comes to our school, I will
show them around. I will not make fun of any kid, but rather say things
that are great about that person.
* I will get proper exercise. I will join sports I like such as
soccer, t-ball, basketball, or volleyball. I will walk, jog, or ride a
bike if it is not the season for the sport I like. When possible I will
get outside and enjoy the fresh air.
* I will limit the time I spend watching television and playing video
games to one to two hours per day.
I will stay away from shows and games that promote violence or
unhealthy living. I will only watch movies that have a rating
appropriate for my age group.
