Sleep
Create a sleep routine (tidy up room, prepare for the next day, have a quiet activity, brush teeth, read). Put away electronics at a certain point in the evening, at least an hour before bedtime. Our electronics emit a blue light that can cause eye strain and inhibit the production of melatonin. iPhones can be set to “Night Shift” which reduces the blue light. Buy an alarm clock for everyone in the household. Keep devices out of room or put on airplane mode at night!
Rose, Bud, Thorn
Each day, ask the members of your family to share their rose (what went well for them that day), their thorn (what they wish went differently) and their bud (what they hope happens tomorrow).
Get outside in nature!
Tie something teen related to the activity. Have a photo contest, social media post challenge, or grab your favorite eats afterward. Take a hike, try a snow-related activity in the amazing Rocky Mountains, play tennis, visit Roxborough State Park, or Castle Canyon State Park.
