In a world where the apocalypse has ravaged the earth and the only thing holding our society together is a strong family bond, it's essential to have a solid plan for keeping your family members in line. This tip will guide you through the proper use of a fridge magnet as a makeshift communication device.
Locate a sturdy fridge magnet with a clear and concise message. A simple "DO NOT TOUCH THE COOKIES" will suffice, but a magnet with a more complex message, such as "PLEASE DO NOT EAT ALL THE PIZZA" will provide a more nuanced approach.
Choose a spot where everyone in the family will see it, such as the fridge or a common area. A good rule of thumb is to place it near the snacks, as this will create an immediate and visceral response.
When someone touches the cookies, use the magnet as a call to action. Simply hold the magnet near the perpetrator and shout "COOKIE THIEF!" in a firm but loving tone. This will serve as a clear and direct message, ensuring the family member knows the severity of their actions.
To avoid repetition, create a system of rewards and consequences. When a family member follows the magnet's message, reward them with a sticker. When they ignore it, take away a privilege (such as screen time or dessert). This will keep the magnet's message top of mind and ensure it's always taken seriously.
