Easy Spring Cleaning Tips for Everyone

Get ready ladies and gents, it's beginning to be that time of year again....Time for SPRING CLEANING! You know what that means...it's time to turn up the tunes (and maybe bring out some wine?) because it's time to kick butt and clean the house this spring. There are many checklists for cleaning, but most of them are all the same types of things. I decided I wanted to share how I get kick started on my own spring cleaning. So from my life to yours, here are my spring cleaning tips to get you started this year.

Songs to Clean the House To

I've said it before and I'll say it once again, music is KEY to cleaning the house. Every time I get ready to clean the house I turn on my "clean the house mix" (such an old school name, I know) and get down to the dirty work. I thought since I've said it so many times that instead of just simply saying play a bunch of upbeat music, I would instead provide you my lovelies with my very own full proof cleaning playlist.

My list is about 30 songs, so I'll list them rather than linking them all individually. It has some current tunes, some old tunes and even some Disney tunes. I like to listen to a little bit of everything when I clean. Each of these songs not only puts me in a good mood but really keeps me feeling motivated.

Kids Vs. Chores: How to Win The Losing Battle

Parent: "Why haven't you done your chores?"

Child: "I'll do them later!"

Whether we like to admit it or not, we’ve all been in that type of position. Whether it is from being a parent or being a kid in the house, it stinks. Most the time it ends up with a yelling match and a stomping child getting annoyed that they have to do their chores, whatever they may be. It doesn’t have to be this way anymore. With the below simple tips not only will your children be doing their chores but *gasp* they may actually like doing them.

Have you considered making chores a game yet? There are many ways to do this including making it a timed challenge. Timing is a great way to get them to do their chores and have a little fun. For example, try making it a contest between each child. Whoever has their chores done first within the next 30 minutes can stay up 20 minutes later. This is a great way to get the kids moving and keeping time for them to be able to do other things as well. 

Make sure that you are also letting them know that you as the parent will be checking their progress at the end of the challenge. This almost works like a reward system in a way. After all, what kid doesn’t like staying up past their normal bedtime?

Spring Cleaning Tips for Teens

Jump in to spring cleaning this year and get things organized in your room and get it looking the way you would like it to look all the time. Spring cleaning is often something that is done during the warmer months of the year however it can be done during the winter months as well if desired. For this article readers will be able to use the five following tips to get their teenager to spring clean their rooms and keep them organized for the home, their guests and themselves.

Pick a day
Before starting any type of spring cleaning it is important to pick the day to do it. Picking a day can be done easily by looking at the personal calender and seeing what day is free from anything else. Depending on the amount of cleaning or deep cleaning that needs to be done, it may become an all day affair to spring clean. Once a day has been picked to clean it is best to mark this day on the calender or write a "post it" note to keep on a mirror or the computer monitor to be sure not to forget this date.

Make a to do list
Now that a date has been chosen for spring cleaning the next step is to make a to do list. Making a spring cleaning check list is an ideal way to stay organized and not worry about forgetting to do something during the cleaning process.This list can be as detailed as needed for the cleaning process. List items might include, clean out drawers, rearrange furniture, wipe down mirrors and windows, go through clothes, and vacuuming. No matter what goes on this list it is important to write it down. Crossing each item off the list will help keep teenagers organized during the spring cleaning as well as help them to see how much needs to be done.

Sort into three boxes
The items that will be sorted in these boxes are as follows: garbage, goodwill items and items that are truly out of place in the room. This can be very beneficial to getting a room organized and help with spring cleaning tasks. Sorting through items that are underneath the bed, in the closet or inside the desk can help tremendously by ridding the room of items no longer needed. The closet is often the most important place to use these three boxes. Clothes might not fit any longer or ever been worn. If this is the case they can be placed in to the donation or goodwill box. Any trash of course will be taken out to the garbage can and items in the miscellaneous or out of place box can be returned to rightful owners and locations.

Listen to music
Use upbeat tempo music to help boost energy during the cleaning process. Music that is from their iPod, or from Spotify can be used to keep teenagers going and give them a sense of their own world as they clean up. This can be music they enjoy at any time, or using Spotify radio it teenagers can find new music that is much like their favorite music. If they are a fan of music from the 60s and 70s these songs are also great for cleaning.

Reorganize
If the teenager finds that they would like to rearrange their room by moving their bed or simply the dresser, give them a hand. Changing the way the bed is or even where things are can help open up a room and give it a whole new appearance. Perhaps they bought a new piece of furniture or a stand alone mirror they would like to put in their room, help them with this. No matter what it is that they change, it can truly help the room feel like a new and improved room.

With each of these tips teenagers will have the room they have desired for a while as well as be able to keep it clean throughout the rest of the year with ease. Spring cleaning as mentioned before is not only meant for the warmer months. Spring cleaning is much like a state of mind, do it at any time that is desired for a clean and organized room.
