Saturday Super Cleaning Fun

I came across a great idea to encourage kids to clean from organizer Sandra Felton. I combined two of her suggestions: using a timer and categorizing, we looked for all the white things we could pick up within 15 minutes. If the job was done before the buzzer, we would enjoy a white treat (ice cream) afterwards. Bonus: any other items needing to be picked up would earn sprinkles on top! We all pitched in and I was surprised just how many white things they found and the other items were picked up too!

  1. I love that idea!
    I popped over from the Company Girl website, and I may have to give that a try, even if it's just to motivate me. :)
