My Journal

I have a special journal at home. Inside I write my thoughts, places I want to visit, nice things I want to do for my friends, and important things I need to remember. Make a journal of your own. Glue cool photos and add stickers. Share your journal with your mom, dad, sister, brother, or friends. Ask them to add a few notes in it too. Journals can be quite fun.

Junk Food

Sometimes it is o.k. to enjoy a sweet treat. If I get a sweet tooth, I try to eat something healthier than cookies, cake, pie, or icecream. Sometimes I eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwhich on whole wheat toast with a tall glass of milk. Yum!

Clean Up

Cleaning up is important. There are many things you can do while you clean. You can donate your things to charity if you don't use them. Also, you can recycle items that you don't need. I organize my things into boxes and then put them away neatly so I can find them again. Cleaning up can be fun and you can help your parents too. How do you he;p clean up?

Moving

Have you ever had to move? There is so much to do! First, you have to pack up all your items. Next, you have to transport them to your new home. Finally, you unpack and start a new part of your life. How many times have you moved? How many places have you moved to?
