With three young kids, I feel like I’m always cleaning. It can feel impossible sometimes to keep my home clean and organized. Instead of getting frustrated, I decided to plan out my cleaning . Below are some tips on how to keep your home clean without having to do it all at once:
Make a Daily Checklist – Keep the List Simple
Make these items the ones that are easy enough to do daily, but will have impact.
Daily:
• Make the beds
• Wipe down bathroom and kitchen counters
• Place dirty clothes in the hamper
• Load the dishwasher; Clear Out Sink
• Pick up toys and clutter
Decide on Weekly Tasks & Assign a Day
Breaking down tasks into assigned days will lessen the load and spread out the work.
Laundry & Change Sheets (Sunday)
Clean bathrooms (Tuesday)
Dust (Friday)
Decide on Larger Tasks for a Monthly Rotation
This makes these tasks a lot more manageable:
Clean windows (April, October)
Wipe baseboards & Crown Molding (January, April, November)
Full Refrigerator Clean Out (February, June, September) August
Happy Cleaning!
