]]>Because it’s the first thing you and your guests see as they enter your home, it’s vital that your entryway is clean and tidy. As a result, when you’re unsure of where to start cleaning, know that the entryway is always a good place to start.
Given that this is the place where everyone eats and makes meals, the kitchen can become messy pretty quickly without enough supervision. In order to instill more order in the kitchen, get some fridge bins to organize food according to categories and teach your kids this system. Furthermore, make sure to teach your children to clean up after themselves when they eat or cook.
Even as we shift to a more digital age, paper continues to be littered throughout our houses. What’s more, even a few stay pieces of paper can greatly mess up the view of any room. If you’re looking for a quick way to improve how your house looks, tidy up the paper first.

]]>Tidying and cleaning your whole home is a lot of work. When it’s split into tasks that are shared between a group of people, it becomes so much more manageable. Your kids will appreciate this too, as they’ll notice how much more free time you have.
If your kids never seem to listen when you tell them to be careful not to make too much mess, then creating a cleaning rota will be your savior. They will be so much more cautious with mess when they have to clean it up.
There’s nothing worse than the housemate at uni who never cleans up after themselves. Avoid your kids becoming this person by teaching them from a young age that everyone needs to put some work into keeping a communal living space clean and tidy.

]]>Most kids don’t have trouble completing tasks, but getting started is a different story. That’s why it’s a good idea to give them a helping hand in the beginning because children often learn through modeling and enjoy collaboration.
Giving your kids a hand to start doesn’t mean cleaning up the whole room for them. Doing this will work against you because your kids won’t learn it’s their responsibility to clean up after themselves and they won’t respect your authority.
Cleaning up can be overwhelming for your kids because their organizing skills are still developing. That’s why it comes in handy to walk them through the process and give them specific tasks and instructions that they can focus on.
Positive reinforcement works on everyone, including your kids, so make sure to praise them once they’re done cleaning their room and consider giving them tiny, yet meaningful rewards.

]]>Spring cleaning can be quite challenging, and your expectations of your kids shouldn’t be too high. Pick chores that match their age, and don’t expect them to stay engaged for too long because they’ll lose focus after an hour or two.
Spring cleaning isn’t easy, but you shouldn’t make it seem like a punishment. Your kids will be more willing to help and do a good job if you turn it into a game, so pump up some music, make cleaning into a contest, and consider rewarding them with a fun family activity once you’re done.
Spring cleaning requires good organizational skills, even when you’re an adult, and your kids will most likely struggle with this part. That’s why it’s a good idea to be very specific when giving them chores and even consider making a list so they can keep track of their progress to stay motivated.
