Make a family phone agreement that fits your child's age. It takes about two minutes, it's free, and it prints on one page so it can go right in the box.
Nothing you type leaves this page. No sign-up, no email.
Pick your child's age and a few house rules. The agreement fills in as you go. You can tap any line to change the wording before you print.
Rules on paper work best when the phone backs them up and the hand-over has a plan.
Make the agreement above. It's free. Print it and put it in the box with the phone.
Set up iPhone Screen Time or Google Family Link so bedtime, app approvals, and filters happen on their own. About an hour, once.
Know what to say on the morning, the first week, and the first time a rule gets broken. Then loosen things up as they're ready.
The agreement sets the rules. The kit sets up the phone to keep them, and gives you the words for the hard talks.
Instant download after checkout.
Uses the free controls already built into the phone. No app to buy, no subscription.
Plain English, written for parents, not IT people.
A calm schedule for a December 25 hand-over. The kit has the full checklist for each step.
8 to 17. The rules change with age: younger kids get more of the decisions made for them, and teens get more say. For a child younger than 8, use the 8–10 rules and tighten anything that feels too loose.
You don't have to, but it helps. Setting it up ahead means Christmas morning isn't two hours of updates and passwords, and the rules are on from the first minute. Most kids care about the phone, not whether the plastic was opened. The kit also covers doing it together on the day if the unboxing matters to your child.
Probably, and that's normal. Kids accept rules they helped make much more easily, so the agreement is written to be read together, with promises from the grown-ups too. The kit has word-for-word scripts for the moments that usually turn into arguments.
No. The kit uses the free controls Apple and Google already build into the phone (Screen Time and Family Link). Nothing extra to install on your child's phone, nothing monthly to pay.
Yes. The kit has a full Google Family Link setup for Android and explains which combinations work best. For example, you can manage an Android phone from an iPhone, but an iPhone's Screen Time is managed from an Apple device.
Nowhere. The agreement is built in your browser and saved only on this device so you can come back to it. There's no account and no record of what you write.
