Clean Your House In Less Time
If you are like most of us busy women, the last thing you worry
about is a clean house. But on the other hand, you want to maintain a
clean house and not have to spend hours on cleaning it.
The key is if you let things pile up, things like laundry, dusting,
laundry, clutter or even vacuuming, its gonna take longer to get on top
of the mess. What you need to do is try and accomplish a little bit of
house cleaning every night. But all it takes a little ambition, a plan,
a routine, and the right equipment.
(plan your work, work your plan).
Perform a quick tidy on a daily basis is the best to keep your space
clean. It is a good way to conquer clutter on a daily basis. Enlist
your kids help. Listen to music and make it a fun time. Or you can set
a timer, give each person/child a room to tidy and make a race and hey
you can even have prizes. No, I am not advocating bribery, but perhaps
you can let the winning person decide what is for supper or you can buy
dollar store toys/items that you can put in a container and let the
person pick. Some people assign children chores that coincide with
their allowance. You should also have consequences for them not
completing assigned tasks. But if you have to clean solo, listen to
books on tape or listen to your favourite music.
-Give a quick wipe to the bathroom sink, a swish around the toilet
bowl with the brush and a quick blast of an air freshener should do the
trick.
-Put toys into a bin, trunk, or basket that you have for the occasion.
-Make your bed and get the kids to make theirs (even a 5 year old can pull up their sheets and make their bed neat.
-Even though their way of doing things might not be your way of cleaning, accept their help and be grateful.
-Use cleaning times as teaching for your children how to clean.
A clean house is not an impossible task, but takes time and dedication to make it happen.
