House Rules Card: One Home
Write this once, in your child's handwriting if they're old enough, and tape it inside the bag.

THE RULES · ________________ HOUSE
Our warning: "If you ______________________ again, it's the bag."
Hurting someone skips the warning. Accidents never go to the bag.
Tired, hungry, sick, scared or sad? We help first. The bag is for choices.
How the bag works:
- We pick ten tiles together, plus the free pass. The bag decides.
- Draw without looking.
- No negotiating. No redraws.
- Do it right away (or as soon as we can).
- The tile goes back in the bag.
- The bag decides, not Mom or Dad.
- Every bag has a Get Out of Trouble Free! tile.
- Age 5 and up: the free pass cancels the consequence, never the repair.
If someone got hurt, you still help make it right.
- Age 7 and up: the free pass doesn't cover a lie. For a lie, it comes
out of the bag before the draw.
Timing rules (when does a long tile start?):
________________________________________________
Optional (teens): Tell first, draw two.
If you tell us before we find out, you draw two and keep the lighter one.
