Do you ever feel like keeping up with housework is the task that never ends? If your house is anything like my house, you could be on one side of the house making beds, picking up rooms, vacuuming the floor, and by the time you make it to the other side the living room and kitchen (that were clean) are now trashed. Some days it really gets to me. Some days I feel like the cleaning never ends. It can feel all so mundane and as if keeping a house clean has absolutely no purpose in the bigger scheme of life. Trust me, I’ve had the same thoughts. The only way to get over the hump is to make cleaning fun!

You’re probably tempted to stop reading now…how in the world do you make cleaning fun? There is nothing fun about cleaning up cheerios off the floor a hundred times a day. I promise, it’s not as crazy as it sounds. So how do you make cleaning fun? I’ll tell you!

Crank up the music!

It’s amazing how powerful a mid-day dance party can be for one’s mood. If you’re feeling a little like you’re doing the same thing all day every day, turn it into a dance party! Crank up the music, show your moves, and dance while you clean! Sometimes when I’m not feeling motivated, music is exactly what I need to get me on my feet and getting things done!

Find your groove!

I know we already talked about dancing, so it’s not that kind of groove. This kind of groove is YOUR groove. The groove of your day where you seem to be the most productive and energetic. That’s the groove you need to find. Do you work best first thing in the morning? Do you seem to have a better groove during the mid-afternoon? Maybe your groove happens in the evening…whatever your groove, find it! When you find the groove in your day, it’s easier to be motivated to conquer those tasks that seem ordinary and dull.

Get your kids involved!

Make it a fun family affair! Get the kids up and dancing, show off your clean moves, and get to cleaning! When the kids join in, you’re not only showing them how to be responsible for their messes, you’re showing them that cleaning can be fun! Make cleaning fun by making it fun for everyone! Cleaning will be something they do for their entire lives, so show them how to make it fun!

Clean your way!

When you put everything together, you find a way to clean YOUR way! You find your groove, you get the family in on it, you turn up the music, and you get things done! It doesn’t take long before you find what works and you can actually have fun! You can clean your way when you get creative with what you’re doing!
