Pestka Family Guidelines

I have had several people ask to see our little "manifesto," so I am putting it on the blog.  We used to read this to the children each morning, but now it is about once a week.  It really does help them to remember how to behave.

Pestka Family Guidelines

1. Always use soft words and kind actions, even when you have been mistreated.
2. Always show joyful attitudes, even when asked to do something you do not wish to do.
3. Always have sincere motives with no thought of self-gain.
4. Always give a good report of others.  Never tattle-tale unless harm will come to someone.
5. Never raise a hand to hit.
6. Never raise a voice to yell.
7. Always use one toy/activity at a time.
8. Always remember to take turns with a gracious heart.
9. Always be kind-hearted to your brothers and sisters.
