Central to my housekeeping strategy is organizing the entire home—room by room—around the needs of every family member.
After all, most homes look war-torn because parents and kids haven't set up rooms for daily living.
To make matters worse, often one adult—usually Mom—has sole responsibility for home cleaning and organizing all the details (which is why moms sometimes get that funny, shell-shocked look around 7 p.m.).
The point is that no Mom or Dad should be an island. Unless parents have a battle plan —a set of strategies and routines to guide the troops through the minefield of daily family life —they can't expect to survive the pre-college years with their sanity intact.
This website helps you (the generals) not only keep your home running smoothly, but also shows you how to enlist even the youngest members of your family —the 'littlest privates'—in home cleaning. By involving them in age-appropriate tasks, you can teach them responsibility and lighten your own load.
There will be room for every drawing, school paper, and test that arrives each day - and even the littlest privates will know where that is.
The wild carpool routine will be tamed. The family plan for buffing surfaces will be in place. And surprise visits from friends won't be dreaded. Even the most domestically challenged will be ready in a flash to host unexpected in-laws overnight.
In short, World War III will be averted, Mom won't be cranky anymore, and the family will have a clean, happy, harmonious home to enjoy.
This website covers everything you need to know to keep your home and family cleaning team on track.
We'll discuss cleaning smarter and quicker with kids, organizing room-by-room, lightening the laundry load, corralling kids, and even preparing the minivan for calm carpools and relaxing weekend getaways.
You can simplify house cleaning and organization, maintain your home, and beautify it in minutes, not hours. This website is the first step toward achieving a cleaner, safer, lovelier, and more hassle-free home.
