| Spring Cleaning Tip - Make Dinner First
|
|
When you know that you are going to be cleaning all day, start your day by making your dinner first. Find a great crockpot recipe and throw it together and let it cook while you clean. When you're done, the last thing you want to do is cook and you don't always have the money to go out for pizza.

| "Spring Cleaning with a Toddler in the House,"
|
|
By Susan Dunn, MA, EQ and Life Coach
|
|
Most children love to clean up along with you. In fact, much of the Montessori Method of early childhood education makes use of this fact, so let them! If you notice their work, praise it, and take it seriously, you'll keep them interested and you might also instill some good future work habits. Don't tune out; keep them included in the process.

| Get Some Boxes at The Grocery Store
|
|
This year my spring cleaning is even more detailed than usual with two graduations and a wedding coming up soon! We will have lots of people coming in and I want things to look as nice as they can. The best thing I do is to get some nice boxes from our local grocery store and throw all my "junk" that I don't use or have room for anymore into the boxes so they can easily be taken to Goodwill.

| Donating Your Extras
|
|
If you are cleaning your closets, basement, or garage now, consider donating your unwanted items to the Goodwill, Amvets, Salvation Army, or some other worthy charity. They will give you a receipt for your goods if you ask, as your donations are tax-deductible if you itemize your return. Even if you don't use the deduction, you are doing a good deed, AND cleaning up your home!

| One Cleaning Project Per Day
|
|
Instead of spring and fall cleaning, which overwhelms me and doesn't get done, I'm working my way through the house with one cleaning project per day.

The National Association of Professional Organizers has dedicated January to clean out those closets, but don't wait for January -- now is the time. Exciting this task is not, but by devoting a couple of afternoons this month you can reduce unnecessary search time and you may even find some extra storage in the process.

Do you like to clean? Hm. I can probably guess your answer. Most people find cleaning a necessary evil and even for those of us who get a certain amount of satisfaction out of this ongoing chore, we want the process to be quick, efficient and effective.

Spring cleaning is something my mother used to do. I'm not my mother. Spring cleaning has been a time honored tradition and the dread of many a busy mom! But with these simple steps it won't take a lot of time either. Don't be afraid to get the kids involved!
