Have funny rules of the house 

Your kids know what rules to follow.  Hopefully they also know what lines not to cross in the house. Although the last thing your kids or visitors in your home need to see is a list of rules and regulations that they have to abide by. Instead, try putting up funny house rules which is more welcoming. 

The aim is to make “rulemaking” more lighthearted. This will let visitors know that you all like to be playful.  Plus it will remind the people who live under your roof that they are safe to open up.  They can make jokes whilst living there. Even if the rules are actual rules of the house, if they are written in a jokey manner then it will still get your point across.  You don’t want anyone to feel bogged down by rules.  Plus the last thing you will want is to offend anyone with your wishes.  How can anyone relax in your home if you are too strict! 

Pets are well known for bringing joy into the home

They have such a fun and loving personality.  Consequently they can easily help their owners feel relieved from stress.

When we take care of them and make them a much loved member of the family, they turn around and make sure that the family feels joy when they are around. The funny faces and big puppy eyes will be hard to ignore.  Also visitors that come into your home will be charmed over by your silly loving pets in no time as well.
