5 Tips to Keep Your House Clean

Cleaning your house is one thing… And there is nothing like coming home to a house that has been cleaned for you.

However, here are 5 quick tips to ensure your house stays clean.

• Enforce a rule that nothing gets dumped on the floor; no school bags, shoes, boxes, plates, etc.
• Assign places where everyday items live, from keys on a hook to school bag on back of door.  Use bins, shelves and hooks and nothing on the floor of your house.
• Delegation… Each family member has an assigned chore; windows, mopping, sweeping, bins, and vacuuming.  Or assign them to certain areas in your house.
• You use it then you clean it immediately after its used. No dumping dishes on the sink. Alternatively you can hide your 20+ plates and cutlery, give kids their own set in an assigned color for everyday use (the proper dining set comes out for group occasions only). If you want a coffee and you mugs dirty, you have to clean it first rather than dirtying another cup.
• Make cleaning your house fun! Have a cleaning playlist of songs that motivate and inspire you to move, James Brown will always make you feel like cleaning. Turn it up loud and throw a damp cloth at other house members.
