Tricks to Get Your Kids to Help with a Quick-Clean of Your Home

by Lorraine Brock

Having an organized plan to get something done is the first step to making it happen. Without a plan, there is usually chaos and a series of sporadic tasks that rarely lead to completed projects. This scenario is true even for household chores.

Chores may not be fun, but they have to be done

Let’s talk today about how to teach kids the importance of being responsible and contributing members of their household and accepting chores that are appropriate. The truth is that for most kids, chores are not fun. Even adults do not necessarily enjoy chores, but at least we realize that if we do not wash the dishes, we will not be eating off of clean plates. Kids, on the other hand, would just use their fingers as utensils and the counter tops as plates!

Often after reading an article or watching a TV show on ways to get organized, I get hooked and want to get started right away on my favorite projects. However, I usually find out that I don’t have all the right organizing products and tools to get the job done correctly.

On one of my project shopping trips, I went to a local hardware store to gather supplies for adding some organization to our newly remodeled bathroom. I did not make it very far down my list because I got caught up looking at all the Command™ brand hanging solutions and other hardware.

The variety of Command hooks keeps getting bigger and better, which means more options on where and how to use these simple but invaluable organizing products. As I stood in front of the display, grabbing package after package, my arms filled with products and my mind began to fill with ideas for this month’s article.

Last month we talked about organizing your jewelry and creative ways to use hooks. This month I want to talk about hooks and hardware in general and how the various items can work with many organizing projects.
