Need Some Ideas on How to Set-up Your Own House Cleaning Chore List.
The first step in making your own house cleaning chore list is to create a checklist for daily, weekly, bi-weekly, monthly and quarterly chores. You might even decide that you need a yearly check list which you can add many things like maintenance items that you don’t want to forget. A weekly list should include tasks like scrubbing down the bathrooms and kitchen, as well as vacuuming the carpets and dusting the furniture. Mopping floors and washing linens that are used daily are also good items to have on your weekly house cleaning chore list. A monthly list can help you keep track of chores like dusting knick-knacks, cleaning out drawers and closets that are used frequently, and de-cluttering the busiest rooms like bedrooms, family rooms and the home office. Cleaning out appliances like the refrigerator and oven might be other good choices to place on your monthly house cleaning chore list.
Once you have completed your house cleaning chore lists, place the weekly list in plain sight for all of your family members to see. I have found the refrigerator is a good spot. This will make the delegation of those frequent tasks much easier, and ensure that the entire family will be able to take pride in seeing that the weekly list was completed. You can even assign certain chores to individual family members, keeping in mind that even little guys can help dust and water plants to contribute to the family. The monthly chore list can be kept with the weekly list or in a drawer or bin where it can be accessed easily to keep track of the chores that are completed. It is a good idea to pull this list out once each week to ensure that at least an item or two are completed on a regular basis.
Juggling everyday life events and keeping a busy household clean and running smoothly is no easy task for anyone. When you start using a house cleaning chore lists to delegate some of those responsibilities to other members of the family you will not only be teaching good life lessons to your family but you will find your able to complete a lot more in a much shorter period of time. We all know a clean home is a happy home!
