Getting the whole family involved in Spring Cleaning

Trying to complete a massive project like spring cleaning on your own can be difficult. There are so many activities and events going on, and the whole family is busy, and it appears that you may be on your own. Finding a day or two when the whole family is home to get spring cleaning done can relieve some cleaning related stress. Look through the family schedule and find one or two days, depending on how long your spring cleaning takes, and schedule your cleaning on those days. Once you have a plan let your family know the plan. Talk about who is expected to help, and what their responsibilities will be. Remember that you have your Storage San Mateo CA storage unit to store any items you wish to place in storage. 

To help you stay organized, create a list of everything that needs to be done. This could include specific rooms that need to be deep cleaned, yard work, and other cleaning assignments. Once you have a complete list make a specific list for everyone helping with spring cleaning. Children all vary in their cleaning ability depending on their age. Spring cleaning is a great time to teach kids new cleaning skills. This may take more time, but it will help your children know how to properly clean things. Cleaning skills will be beneficial as your kids grow up and eventually become adults. 

Spring cleaning as a family will help you get this project done soon, and it also can give you some family time. Cleaning does not have to be boring, you can make it fun. Make a spring cleaning playlist that all of your kids will like, and jam out to music while getting your cleaning done. Working together also gives you time to talk to your children about their lives. Ask them about their interests, friends, crushes, and hobbies. Your kids can look back on your spring cleaning time with fond memories of bonding and enjoying each other’s company.
